Instructions
Prepare all vegetables: cut broccoli into small florets, slice bell pepper into thin strips, slice zucchini into half-moons, julienne the carrot, and slice the red onion.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and minced ginger to create the stir-fry sauce.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the broccoli and carrot. Stir-fry for about 3 minutes until they start to soften.
Add the bell pepper, zucchini, snow peas, and red onion to the skillet, stirring constantly.
Pour the sauce over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a main course.
