"This is a simple, easy, sauce for a stir fry. It works great with - shrimp, scallops, chicken, pork, or beef. Add with your favorite mix of vegetables. Then, serve over noodles or rice. I happen to like this version, because it is a bit lighter than most."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Sauce ... Simply mix all the ingredients in a measuring cup or small bowl. It's ready to use. One note, I like to use honey vs sugar; just my preference. But, sugar works equally as well.
Step 2
Stir Fry ... I usually saute my protein first; then, remove to a plate as you prepare the vegetables. Saute the vegetables until tender. Return your protein to the pan, and add the sauce. It takes just a couple of minutes to heat through, naturally thicken; and, it's ready to serve.
Step 3
Note ... You as much sauce as you want. Personally, I don't like too much sauce. I used 1/2 lb shrimp and 2 1/4 cups of vegetables - for this particular amount of sauce. It just depends on how 'saucy' you like your stir fry.
Step 4
Serve and ENJOY ... Plate your stir fry as is; or, over rice or noodles.
