Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 2 small zucchini
- 2 medium carrots
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 small yellow onion
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Wash and prepare all vegetables. Dice the red bell pepper, slice the zucchini into half-moons, peel and slice the carrots into thin rounds, chop the onion finely, and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and slightly softened.
Add the carrots to the pan and sauté for another 3 minutes since they take longer to cook.
Add the broccoli florets, zucchini, and red bell pepper to the pan. Stir well to combine and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning over the vegetables. Stir to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the lemon juice for a bright touch of acidity.
Remove the pan from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve warm as a side dish or pair with your favorite grain for a complete meal. Enjoy!
