Notes
Nutrition information does not include rice.Store leftover veggies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop in a saute pan until warmed through, do not overcook.What can I use in place of the chili garlic sauce? Chili garlic sauce has a mild heat (depending on the brand) and is very garlicky. You can add a couple cloves of minced garlic 30 seconds before adding the sauce to the pan, and add a teaspoon of sriracha or gochujang for some heat.If you don’t like cilantro you can leave it out.Lime juice and zest adds a unique, bright, citrusy freshness to the stir fry. Lime juice can be substituted for 3 teaspoons seasoned rice vinegar.Other veggies that would work in this stir fry: baby corn, zucchini, broccolini, bok choy, green cabbage, or bean sprouts.Green bell pepper is quite bitter, I do not recommend swapping green bell pepper for the red. If you can’t find red, use orange or yellow instead.Add tofu, steak, chicken, pork or shrimp for additional protein.Use an oil that can tolerate high heat such as canola or avocado.
