Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
Start by preparing the broccoli by cutting it into bite-sized florets. Make sure to wash and dry them thoroughly.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and ginger, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for about 5 minutes, or until they start to become tender but still crisp.
Next, add the sliced red bell pepper to the skillet and continue to stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes until the peppers are tender.
Pour in the tamari and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss everything well to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Continue to stir-fry for another 2 minutes until all the ingredients are cooked to your desired level of tenderness.
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the stir-fry with sesame seeds and green onions.
Serve immediately as a side dish or with your choice of Paleo-friendly protein for a complete meal.
