- 1 1/2 cups protein (beef, chicken, pork, shrimp, seafood, tofu, etc.)
- 2 tbsp. olive oil

Method
Prepare noodles or rice according to directions.
In a small saucepan, add in each of the sauce ingredients and whisk together. Leave over a medium burner, stirring occasionally, until the brown sugar is dissolved. Do not burn.
While that cooks, stir-fry your protein (meat, tofu, etc.) in a wide skillet or wok with olive oil over medium-a hot burner until cooked. Lift protein from skillet and keep nearby.
Tip in veggies to skillet, and stir to coat in the remaining oil. Tip in 1/2 Tbsp. Oil if need be.) Stir-fry the veggies in the skillet over medium-a hot burner for 3-4 minutes. Then add in the (drained) noodles or rice, along with the cooked protein. Tip sauce evenly over stir fry and stir to coat. Leave an additional 1-2 minutes. Tip in sesame oil and sriracha (skippable). Then finish with sesame seeds and freshly ground black pepper, and serve!
