This flavorful stir-fry comes together really quick. You can have dinner on the table in 30 minutes or less. The sauce is a delicious garlic and ginger sauce that slightly thickens upon cooking due to the cornstarch. Be sure to get your rice or whatever you want to serve it over started before you begin the stir-fry. Yummy flavors for sure in this dinner and leftovers heat up easily.
