Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (Or try it with tahini or black bean sauce - peanut butter is more readily available and easier)

  • 2 tablespoons honey (you can use brown sugar instead)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder use more as desired
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha (or use any Chinese hot sauce, red chili sauce, chili paste or try your favorite hot sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
