Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil (like canola or vegetable)
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1 cup snap peas or snow peas
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup sliced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • For the Sauce:
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, cornstarch, and water. Set aside.
  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering.
  3. Add broccoli and carrots to the hot skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
  4. Add bell peppers, snap peas, mushrooms, and onion. Continue to stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  5. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  6. Pour the prepared sauce over the vegetables. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens and coats the vegetables, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Serve immediately over rice or noodles, or portion into meal prep bowls.

Notes

  • For meal prep, store cooked stir fry in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
  • To keep vegetables crisp, avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.
  • Adjust the sauce ingredients to your preference. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat.
  • This stir fry is a great base for adding protein like chicken, tofu, or shrimp.
