Here is a homemade version of a Chinese takeout favorite that is ready in 30 minutes. Enjoy it on its own, wrapped in lettuce leaves, or served over rice. You can substitute 3 cups of shredded cabbage and 3 cups of shredded carrot for the slaw mix. Don't be intimidated by the list of ingredients in the sauce for this recipe. You can find them in the Asian section of most supermarkets, and once you have them, you can use them in a wide variety of stir-fry recipes. You can, however, use a bottled sauce if you prefer.
