Soy-Sesame Vegetable Sauté
I prepared this soy-sesame vegetable sauté side dish recipe to serve with the shrimp fried rice and potstickers I made for dinner. The veggies turned out crisp-tender and delicious, and paired perfectly with the rest of our meal. Quick, simple, and healthy – I love recipes like that!
Soy-Sesame Vegetable Sauté
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of broccoli florets
- 1-2 tsp vegetable oil
- ½ red onion, sliced into chunks
- 4 baby carrots, sliced
- 1 red baby bell pepper, sliced into chunks
- 2 baby zucchini, sliced
- 1 cup of sugar snap peas
- 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
How to Make a Soy-Sesame Vegetable Sauté
Place the broccoli florets in a steamer tray in a large pot of boiling water.
Once the water is boiling, place a lid on the pot and steam for 2-3 minutes or until broccoli is just tender.
Remove from the pot of water and steamer immediately. Set aside.
While the broccoli is steaming, heat the vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring often, for 4 minutes.
Add the zucchini, sugar snap peas, and broccoli to the skillet.
Add the minced garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil, then cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Remove from the heat and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
Serve immediately. Enjoy.
