For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the stir-fry.
If you don't have Cajun seasoning, you can use a blend of paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and oregano.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables based on your preference and what's in season. Broccoli, carrots, or snow peas would all be great additions.
To make this dish gluten-free, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
