These Garlic Steak Zoodles make good use of a spiralizer for a delicious, Asian-inspired “noodle” stir fry. This recipe came through in a pinch when I had a jar of sambal oelek (a brand of red chili paste) I wanted to get rid of. It’s just so easy to make! While you’ll have to omit the red chili paste and red pepper if you’re on the autoimmune protocol or otherwise avoiding nightshades, the omission doesn’t detract from the flavor at all. For everyone else, use more or less chili paste according to your taste.
