Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups broccoli
- 2 medium carrots
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium zucchini
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Wash and chop the vegetables: cut the broccoli into florets, slice the carrots into thin rounds, cut the red bell pepper into strips, and slice the zucchini into half-moons.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, and minced garlic until well combined.
Place the chopped vegetables in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the sesame sauce over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Spread the vegetables out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, salt, and black pepper.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with additional sesame seeds if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or over rice or noodles for a more filling meal.
