The sauce is incredibly easy to put together and all you’ve got to do is slice up the veggies. Then throw everything in a skillet and serve over rice.

I love quick dinners like this because some nights, you just need it. You’re looking for something fairly healthy and flavorful but not something that will take you hours to do.

Honestly, you could prep this the night before by slicing all the vegetables and making the sauce.

Then you come home and put it all together in the skillet.

There is nothing easier!

You can also use whatever veggies you have in the fridge. Stir fries predominantly have bell peppers and some sort of pea (sugar or snap peas). You could even use broccoli.

Actually, the first time I made this recipe, I didn’t have sugar peas so I used broccoli.

For some reason, I like mushrooms in my stir fry. They kind of remind me of fajitas…but for this Asian version, lol

  1. I found this recipe online and when I first tried it, I really enjoyed it.

    For how many people can this dish serve???

  2. This stir fry was so quick and delicious. Some stir frys take an ASS load of effort, but this one did not. Fucking awesome!

  3. A bit too salty for my tastes. Perhaps reducing the quantity of soy and increasing the volume of water would work. Either that or use a reduced salt soy.
