This looks super yummy! I think I might try it with green beans and mushrooms (and add chicken). Would you recommend marinating the chicken in anything in particular first?
Also, the text above the recipe mentions oyster sauce, but I don't see it listed in the recipe? Thanks!

Delicious! This recipe is easy and so tasty. So glad I came across it. The sauce is to die for. This is my favorite way to eat asparagus.Reply

Sub for Xanthan gum? Maybe tapioca starch or arrowroot? I usually have those on hand. Also, can the Sambal Olek be easy to find in stores? Thanks!

Either of those will work. I linked to the sambal olek I used.

Hi. I made this last night, and it was delicious. However, I think there's a mistake in the recipe. You show adding two tablespoons of oil to the sauce. I think the oil should instead be added to the pan when you cook the garlic and ginger. Hope this helps!

Ummm I don’t think this is vegan because of the oyster sauce. There is a vegan oyster sauce made from mushrooms though. I look forward to making this!
