Filipino Style Recipe: I first tried this dish when we went to Beijing for a vacation. It was winter then, so the spicyness of this dish is perfect for an additional heat. I tried it when I got back home and they loved it. You can adjust the chili garlic sauce depending on how spicy you want it to be. If you are not a fan of green beans, you can replace it with asparagus.
