For a deeper, more complex flavor, try using dark soy sauce in addition to regular soy sauce. A splash of rice vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice can add a bright, tangy note to the glaze. Serve with steamed rice, stir-fried vegetables, or a crisp Asian slaw for a complete and satisfying meal. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
