Asian Style Vegetable Stir Fry
This is a dish I came up with when I was craving stir fry AND bbq. It was the perfect compromise! I had stir fried veggies with a steak 🙂
What’s really cool here is the fact that when I steamed the broccoli in the stock, the stock evaporated when the broccoli was cooked and it coated the veggie in an amazing crust.
As I sit here writing this I already know I’m making this for dinner tonight!
This is how you make it:
Bring the stock to a boil and then add in the broccoli; steam 5 minutes in stock then set aside (the stock will evaporate after 4-5 minutes).
Add the oil to the pan and then sauté the veggies over high heat for 2 minutes; season the veggies with salt and pepper.
Add in the cooked broccoli, the garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil, mix well and sauté for another minute shaking the pan constantly.
Transfer the veggies to a serving plate and top with the green onion.
Serve immediately 🙂
This is a super easy recipe for crunchy veggies coated in a sweet and salty sauce, a perfect side dish for a busy weeknight with any protein 🙂
