Easy Sweet and Spicy Stir-Fry Sauce image

While making a sauce for pork chops one night, I thought this would be a good base for a sweet and spicy stir-fry sauce. Not only was it tasty, but it was simple. Who would've thought :) Add whatever type of meat and/or vegetables you want. DH and I like ours over steamed rice. Makes enough sauce for one large pan/wok of stir-fry.
