Ingredients

• 8 ounces gluten-free rice noodles
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 medium zucchini, julienned
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 3 stalks scallions, sliced
• 3 tablespoons tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce (gluten-free)
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons water
• 0.5 teaspoons chili flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water, then set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together tamari, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, water, and chili flakes (if using). Set the sauce aside.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and swirl to coat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the carrot, red bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli florets to the pan. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 6

Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil to the other side. Add the cooked rice noodles and stir to combine.

Step 7

Pour the prepared sauce over the noodles and vegetables. Toss everything together until the sauce evenly coats the noodles and vegetables.

Step 8

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat everything through. Stir in the sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds.

Step 9

Remove from heat, garnish with additional sesame seeds or scallions if desired, and serve immediately.
