Wash and prepare all vegetables: cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, thinly slice the carrots, slice the bell peppers into strips, dice the zucchini, and trim the ends off the snow peas if needed.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic to the hot oil and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Add the broccoli and carrots to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften.
Next, add the bell peppers, zucchini, and snow peas to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Season the vegetables with salt and ground black pepper, stirring well to coat evenly.
Remove the skillet from the heat and drizzle the vegetables with lemon juice. Toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately, garnished with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy!
