Ingredients

• 4 cups Broccoli florets
• 2 medium Carrots
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 cup Sugar snap peas
• 3 large Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 0.5 cup Low sodium vegetable broth
• 2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 stalks Scallions
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the vegetables: cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, slice the carrots into thin rounds, julienne the red bell pepper, and trim the sugar snap peas.

Step 2

Finely mince the garlic cloves and grate the fresh ginger.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the low sodium vegetable broth, low sodium soy sauce, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 5

Add the garlic and ginger to the hot pan and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to let them burn.

Step 6

Add the broccoli, carrots, red bell pepper, and sugar snap peas to the pan. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender.

Step 7

Whisk the sauce mixture again and pour it over the vegetables. Lower the heat to medium and stir continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the vegetables, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry and sprinkle with black pepper. Toss everything together to combine.

Step 9

Remove from heat and transfer the stir-fry to a serving platter.

Step 10

Slice the scallions thinly and sprinkle them over the top of the dish along with the sesame seeds.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful and low sodium broccoli stir-fry!
