Notes

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Marinade for a minimum of five minutes for amplified taste. You can substitute flank steak, chicken breast, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option. If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, reheating gently in a skillet to maintain texture. Frozen portions can be kept for up to three months.
