Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 3 large garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 2 large carrots, julienned or sliced into thin rounds
• 1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 green onions, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add coconut oil and allow it to melt.

Step 2

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the sliced red and yellow bell peppers, broccoli florets, carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir frequently to evenly cook the vegetables.

Step 4

Cook the vegetables for approximately 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Be careful not to overcook them; they should retain some crunch.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, and toasted sesame oil. Pour this mixture over the vegetables in the skillet.

Step 6

Toss the vegetables well to evenly coat them in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the stir fry to a serving dish.

Step 8

Optional: Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top for garnish before serving.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a stand-alone dish or as a side to your favorite Paleo protein.
