Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 diced medium onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 chopped red bell pepper
- 1 sliced zucchini
- 1 sliced carrot
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until it starts to become translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped red bell pepper, sliced zucchini, and sliced carrot to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the onions and garlic.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and mix well.
In a small bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, ground black pepper, and dried thyme.
Pour the sauce over the vegetables, stirring well to coat evenly.
Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender yet still crisp.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.
Serve the savory mixed vegetables hot as a side dish or a light main course.
