Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 whole Red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 medium Carrots, julienned
- 1 cup Snow peas
- 1 medium Zucchini, sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds, toasted
Instructions
Begin by preparing all the vegetables. Wash and dry them thoroughly.
Chop the broccoli into small florets. Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips. Peel and julienne the carrots. Trim the ends of the snow peas and slice the zucchini into half-moons.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir quickly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets to the pan. Stir fry for about 2 minutes until they start to turn bright green.
Add the red bell pepper, carrots, snow peas, and zucchini to the skillet. Stir constantly to ensure even cooking, for about 4-5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of lemon juice over the vegetables and season with salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine the flavors.
Remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds on top of the stir fry.
Serve the vegetable stir fry immediately as a main dish or alongside your favorite protein.
