Notes

LC SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve over Cauli-Rice (process cauliflower in a blender or food processor until it resembles grains of rice; steam “rice” till tender; drain; salt and pepper to taste and fluff with a fork).
SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve over brown rice instead of Cauli-Rice.
KOSHER: Use boneless skinless chicken thighs instead of pork chops.
GLUTEN FREE: Make sure soy sauce and wine (or juice/vinegar) are gluten free. Use arrowroot starch instead of cornstarch.
