Swaps and substitutions

For a peanut-free version, skip the peanuts and finish with toasted sesame seeds or crispy onions for crunch. To avoid soy or gluten, swap any soy- or wheat-based sauces for certified gluten-free alternatives and use another savory glaze.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad, quick-pickled vegetables, or steamed edamame to add freshness and balance the spicy-sweet flavors. A lime wedge or extra cucumber on the side also works well for a brighter, cooler finish.
