- 1/3 cup coconut aminos
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 pinch salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS

NOTES
- Add-ins: Customize your stir fry with mushrooms, cauliflower, cashews, almonds, chickpeas, or carrots for extra flavor.
- Alternate proteins: If you prefer, substitute chicken with firm tofu cubes for a vegetarian option, or try my soy-free beef and broccoli stir fry.
- Non-soy alternative: Use soy sauce or tamari in place of coconut aminos if you’re not avoiding soy.
- Spice it up: Add cayenne pepper or fresh chili peppers (whole or sliced) for a bit of heat.
