Chinese Stir Fry is a traditional dish that has been enjoyed for centuries in China and other parts of Asia. This dish typically consists of bite-size vegetables and protein that is quickly cooked over high heat, with a delicious sauce to bring everything together. In this recipe, we use gluten, a great plant-based protein alternative that is often used in vegetarian and vegan dishes. The added hoisin sauce and other spices bring a unique, rich flavor that is irresistible. It's an easy and fuss-free meal that can be enjoyed any night of the week.

2.In a bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, rice vinegar, sweetener, vegetable broth, minced garlic, minced ginger, and cornstarch. Set aside for later use.
