Chef's notes
*Be sure to read the label before purchasing the worcestershire, to ensure it is vegan.

Hi there Angela -
As mentioned in the recipe, this will yield enough for 4 servings. As for sweetener choice, a liquid sweetener is a good choice of agave, maple or yukon syrup would be a good fit for that tablespoon in the recipe.
Hope thats helpful.

I really enjoyed this recipe. It didn't get too salty which happens in restaurants a lot. I increased the vegetables to make it a little more healthy. Thank you for sharing it.
Delicious flavors. Loved it and loved it again the next day! Next time I will double (at least) the amount of veggies. The sauce is great and I've used it in other dishes. Thanks for the recipe!
