  • 1½ cups mushrooms (cremini or shiitake), sliced

  • 2 tbsp neutral oil (avocado, grapeseed, or peanut)

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced

  • 3 green onions, sliced (white and green parts separated)

  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

Instructions

  • Mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and cornstarch slurry in a small bowl. Set aside.
