Toss everything together in the pan for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the pecans to warm slightly. Serve immediately, either on its own for a light meal or over a bed of rice or fresh salad greens for a more substantial dish.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of soy sauce or a drizzle of honey during the last minute of cooking.
Feel free to substitute vegetables based on your preference and what's in season. Bell peppers, snap peas, or broccoli florets would be excellent additions.
Toasted pecans will bring out even more of their nutty flavor. Toast them in a dry pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes before adding them to the stir-fry.
