This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken or tofu. I also like to add some chopped nuts for extra crunch.

This stir-fry recipe was a hit! The sprouts and water chestnuts were perfectly crisp, and the sauce was flavorful and not too heavy. I added a bit of extra ginger and garlic, and it really took the dish to the next level. Definitely a keeper!
