Add sliced meat (beef, chicken, or pork) into a bowl and mix the sauce into it. Marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat a grill to high heat, or lightly grease a large skillet or pan over high heat. Once hot, cook the meat strips for 4-5 minutes per side.

Notes

This sauce makes enough to marinate 1/2 pound of beef strips.

TO STORE: If you haven't used the sauce to marinate beef or chicken (or any other protein), you can store leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to one week. Sometimes the sauce will thicken and if that happens, let it bring it to room temperature before using it.
