Tips
- For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a sliced fresh chili pepper with the garlic and ginger.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of water or broth if the sauce has thickened too much.
