Notes
Substitutes: If you can't find tamari, you can use the same amount of low-sodium soy sauce. If you can't find Sambal oelek (spicy chili sauce), use the same amount of sriracha.
Storage: This dish will keep well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for three to four days. Enjoy the leftovers cold or warm them up in the microwave.
