Notes

For gluten-free, swap soy sauce for tamari or coconut aminos. Maple syrup can replace honey for a vegan version. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheating tips: add a splash of water when reheating to keep moist. Consider serving over rice or with veggies for a complete meal. Enjoy!
