Wash and prepare all vegetables: Cut broccoli into small florets, julienne the carrot, slice red bell pepper into thin strips, trim the snap peas, and slice zucchini into half-moons.
Mince the garlic and grate the fresh ginger.
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by whisking together the gluten-free soy sauce (tamari), sesame oil, and cornstarch with water. Set aside.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir quickly for 30 seconds to release their aromas, being careful not to burn.
Add the broccoli florets and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until they begin to soften.
Add the red bell pepper, snap peas, and zucchini. Continue stir-frying for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until all the vegetables are cooked but still slightly crisp.
Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet, tossing to coat the vegetables evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is well combined.
Remove the skillet from heat. If desired, garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Serve immediately on its own or over cooked brown rice, quinoa, or gluten-free noodles.
