Ingredients

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ginger, grated

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

1 medium carrot, julienned

1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup sugar snap peas

2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)

1 tablespoon hoisin sauce

1 teaspoon chili paste (optional, for heat)

Sesame seeds, for garnish

Chopped green onions, for garnish

Instructions

Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Place the sliced red and yellow bell peppers, julienned carrot, and broccoli florets into the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

Add the zucchini and sugar snap peas to the skillet. Continue to stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until all vegetables are crisp-tender but still vibrant in color.

Drizzle the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and chili paste (if using) over the vegetables. Toss everything together for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the sauce coats the vegetables evenly.

Remove the skillet from heat and let it sit for a minute to cool slightly before serving.

Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
