Instructions

Cook Easy Vegetable Stir Fry Recipe Like This

  • Step 1: Prepare the Stir Fry Sauce - In a small bowl, whisk together the Liquid Aminos, low sodium Chicken Broth, Sesame Oil, sugar-free Rice Vinegar, minced Ginger, minced Garlic, and sugar substitute. In another small bowl, mix the Cornstarch with the Water until smooth, then combine it with the other sauce ingredients. Set aside.
  • Step 2: Chop the Vegetables - Choose your favorite vegetables for the stir fry. Some great options include bell peppers, carrots, broccoli, snap peas, and zucchini. Aim for about 4-6 cups of chopped vegetables. Cut them into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
  • Step 3: Heat the Oil - In your wok or large skillet, heat the neutral oil over medium-high heat. Make sure the oil is hot before adding your vegetables to achieve that perfect stir-fry texture.
  • Step 4: Stir Fry the Vegetables - Add your chopped vegetables to the hot oil. Stir constantly for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp. You want them to maintain some of their vibrant color and crunch.
  • Step 5: Add the Sauce - Once your vegetables are cooked to your liking, pour the stir fry sauce over them in the pan. Stir well to coat all the vegetables evenly. Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
  • Step 6: Serve and Enjoy - Remove the stir fry from heat and serve it immediately. You can enjoy it on its own or serve it over rice, quinoa, or noodles. For an extra touch, garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions.
