Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 cloves minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 large sliced carrot, 1 medium sliced red bell pepper, 2 cups broccoli florets, and 1 cup snap peas. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until vegetables are bright and just tender-crisp.
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, 1/4 cup water, and 1 tsp cornstarch until smooth.
  4. Step 4: Pour the sauce over the vegetables in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the vegetables.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and sprinkle 1 tsp sesame seeds on top if desired before serving warm.
