1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice wine
White pepper to taste
1 tbsp brown sugar
2 chicken cutlets, chopped
1 tbsp. sesame oil
5 cloves garlic

  • If you don't have fresh green beans, you can use frozen ones. Just thaw them completely before using.
  • To make a vegan version of this sauce, use olive oil instead of butter and omit the Parmesan cheese.
