Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms (cremini or button)
  • 1 red bell pepper, julienned
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 green onion, chopped (for garnish)

  2. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  3. Add garlic and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
