Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Step 2: Add 2 cups broccoli florets, 1 cup snap peas, 1 medium sliced red bell pepper, 1 large julienned carrot, and 1 cup sliced shiitake mushrooms. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp brown sugar, and 1 tbsp sesame oil.
  4. Step 4: Pour the sauce over the vegetables in the skillet and toss to coat. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and glazes the vegetables.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat, sprinkle with 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 sliced green onions.
  6. Step 6: Serve immediately on its own or over steamed rice or noodles.
