Ingredients
  

For the Sauce
  • ½ cup Plain Greek Yogurt Adds creaminess and tang; substitute with sour cream for a similar texture.
  • ¼ cup Mayonnaise Enhances richness; use avocado mayonnaise for a twist or keep it dairy-free.
  • 1 tablespoon Freshly Grated Ginger Provides a fresh, zesty kick; ground ginger can substitute, but flavor will differ.
  • 1 tablespoon Toasted Sesame Oil Contributes a nutty aroma; use sparingly as it has a strong flavor.
  • ¼ cup Dark Soy Sauce Adds depth and richness; low-sodium tamari can be substituted for gluten-free.
  • ½ unit Lime Juice Brightens the flavor profile; replace with rice vinegar if needed.
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha Adds heat; adjust quantity depending on your desired spice level.
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons Honey Sweetens and balances flavors; can be omitted or replaced with maple syrup for a vegan option.
