Ingredients

• 300 grams Snow peas
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium Green bell pepper
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low-sodium)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the snow peas thoroughly under cold running water. Trim the ends and remove any tough strings, if needed.

Step 2

Slice the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into thin strips, discarding the seeds and membranes.

Step 3

Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 6

Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until they start to soften but still retain some crispness.

Step 7

Toss in the snow peas and stir-fry for an additional 2–3 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil over the vegetables. Sprinkle in the salt and ground black pepper. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated.

Step 9

Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the top and give it one last quick stir.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the vegetables to a serving dish. Serve immediately as a side dish or over steamed rice for a light meal.
