Ingredients
  

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup bell peppers (red, yellow, and green), sliced

1 carrot, thinly sliced

1 cup snap peas

1 cup mushrooms, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1-inch piece of ginger, grated

3 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Cooked rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions
 

Prep the Vegetables: Wash and cut all the vegetables into bite-sized pieces to ensure quick cooking.

    Heat the Pan: In a large wok or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

      Sauté Aromatics: Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the hot oil, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

        Add Vegetables: Toss in the broccoli, bell peppers, carrot, snap peas, and mushrooms. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until they begin to soften but still retain their crunch.

          Flavor It Up: Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil. If using cornstarch for a thicker sauce, dissolve it in a tablespoon of water before adding it to the pan. Mix everything well.

            Season: Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to your taste. Continue to cook for another minute until everything is well-coated and heated through.

              Serve: Remove from heat, and sprinkle sesame seeds over the stir fry for added texture and flavor.

                Plate: Serve the vibrant stir fry over a bed of cooked rice or noodles for a complete meal.
