Ingredients

• 4 cups Broccoli slaw mix (pre-shredded)
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing your ingredients. Mince the garlic cloves and fresh ginger. Set them aside.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the broccoli slaw mix to the skillet, stirring frequently to evenly coat it in the garlic and ginger mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the vegetables to slightly soften while retaining a crunch.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), and red pepper flakes. Pour this sauce over the broccoli slaw in the skillet.

Step 6

Stir everything well, ensuring the sauce evenly coats the slaw. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, just until the slaw is heated through but still crisp.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from heat. Taste and season with salt and black pepper as needed.

Step 8

Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired, for extra flavor and texture.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a warm side dish or let it cool slightly for a refreshing salad-like option.
