Ingredients

Fresh Ingredients
  • 2 cups fresh vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, zucchini, and carrots) Feel free to swap out vegetables based on what you have on hand.
  • 1 pound your choice of protein (chicken, tofu, or shrimp) Optional: Chicken, tofu, or shrimp can be used.
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: sesame seeds for garnish

Method

Preparation
  1. Begin by washing and chopping your vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  2. If using chicken or shrimp, cut them into small portions for even cooking.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add your choice of protein to the skillet and cook until golden brown and fully cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the chopped vegetables and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender yet crisp, roughly 5 minutes.
  5. Pour in the soy sauce and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and allow to cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  6. Once everything is heated through and flavors are well combined, remove from heat and serve hot. Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired.
