Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Broccoli
- 1 large Carrot
- 1 medium Bell pepper (any color)
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 small Red onion
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups Baby spinach
Instructions
Wash and prepare all vegetables. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, peel and slice the carrot into thin strips (julienne style), core and slice the bell pepper, cut the zucchini into half-moons, and slice the red onion thinly.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the broccoli, carrots, and red onion to the skillet. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften but retain their crunch.
Add the bell pepper and zucchini to the pan, stirring constantly, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Drizzle in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and lemon juice. Stir well to coat the vegetables evenly.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir fry for another minute.
Turn off the heat and toss in the baby spinach. The residual heat will wilt the spinach slightly.
Sprinkle the stir fry with sesame seeds for added crunch and visual appeal.
Serve warm as a side dish or let it cool and enjoy as a refreshing salad.
