Make
- Heat a wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbs. (14.8ml)cooking oil and then garlic to heated oil. Once you can smell the garlic, add in the onions with a dash of salt. Stir-fry until they start to soften up, ~3 minutes. Add in zucchini and red peppers. Stir-fry for another ~2 minutes. Add in seitan and then noodles.
- Make a donut in the middle of your wok, and pour in your stir-fry sauce. When it starts to bubble and thicken, toss everything together. Add in a squeeze of lime juice and basil leaves. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and hot sauce and serve warm. For more stir-fry help, check out this video.
