Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar

  1. Whisk soy sauce, peanut butter, honey, and rice vinegar until smooth.
  2. Add garlic, sesame oil, and five-spice; whisk to combine.

Notes

Let the sauce rest for 10 minutes before serving so the flavors meld. It will thicken slightly as it sits; stir in a teaspoon of water if needed.
