Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days. To reheat, warm the stir fry in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water or broth to keep it from drying out. You can also microwave it in short intervals, stirring between each interval until heated through. For best texture, avoid overcooking when reheating.
