Ingredients you’ll need

• Chicken stock: Most brands are gluten-free, but be sure to check the label. Check out this article on is chicken broth gluten-free.
• Tamari: Tamari is gluten-free soy sauce. Many soy sauces are made with a soybean/wheat blend, but tamari is made of 100% soybeans.
• Brown sugar: For a little sweetness!
• Sesame oil: Adds a delicious flavor. A little goes a long way so you just need a teaspoon.
• Cornstarch: A naturally gluten-free ingredient that thickens the sauce.
• Red pepper flakes: I only add 1/4 for a little flavor. It doesn’t make the sauce spicy – just more flavorful. Add more red pepper flakes if you want a spicier sauce.
