Ingredients

• 4 pieces zucchini (medium, spiralized into noodles)
• 2 pieces carrots (medium, julienned or spiralized)
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 piece red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
• 1 piece yellow onion (thinly sliced)
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 3 cloves fresh garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
• 3 tablespoons coconut aminos (Paleo-friendly soy sauce alternative)
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional, for flavor)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 stalks scallions (green parts, sliced thin, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare your ingredients by spiralizing the zucchini and carrots, slicing the vegetables, and grating the ginger.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and melt 2 tablespoons of coconut oil.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet, stirring frequently for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the onion slices and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 5

Stir in the broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and carrots. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 6

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the spiralized zucchini noodles. Stir the zucchini noodles lightly, allowing them to warm and soften for about 2 minutes.

Step 7

Drizzle the coconut aminos and sesame oil (if using) over the vegetables and zucchini noodles. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, tossing everything together to combine and evenly coat the ingredients.

Step 8

Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, ensuring the zucchini noodles are tender but not overly soft.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the stir-fry with sesame seeds and sliced scallions before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately as a main dish or alongside a protein of your choice for a robust, Paleo-friendly meal.
