Triple Delight Chinese Recipe
Triple Delight is a popular dish in Chinese-American cuisine that typically features a combination of three different proteins—often beef, chicken, and shrimp—stir-fried with vegetables in a savory sauce. The dish balances the textures and flavors of the proteins with vegetables like broccoli, bell peppers, snow peas, carrots, and mushrooms.
