Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium bell peppers (red, yellow, and green)
- 1 medium zucchini
- 2 medium carrots
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Wash all the vegetables thoroughly under running water.
Slice the bell peppers into thin strips, the zucchini into half-moons, and the carrots into thin diagonal slices.
Pat the broccoli florets dry with a kitchen towel to ensure they cook evenly.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the carrots to the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the broccoli and cook for another 3 minutes, allowing them to soften slightly.
Next, add the zucchini and bell peppers to the skillet, stirring well to combine.
Drizzle the soy sauce and lemon juice over the vegetables, then sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Continue to cook the vegetables for 5–6 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are tender yet crisp.
Remove the skillet from the heat and adjust seasoning as needed.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm as a side dish or light main course.
