Ingredients

For the Sauce:

  • cup water
  • ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • crushed red pepper flakes to taste, optional for added spice

For the Stir Fry:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound broccoli chopped into bite-sized florets
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1 bell pepper red, yellow or orange, sliced
  • cooked white or brown rice for serving
  • sesame seeds optional, for serving

Instructions

  • Combine all stir fry sauce ingredients in a small bowl: water, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, black pepper, cornstarch and red pepper flakes (if using). Whisk to mix. Set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli and mushrooms and cook, stirring often, for 4 minutes. If you find that the pan is getting too hot on medium-high, turn the heat down to medium.
  • Add the bell pepper and continue cooking, stirring often, for 2-3 minutes, until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  • Whisk the sauce again to recombine the ingredients. Pour the sauce into the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, until the sauce thickens.
  • Serve over cooked rice, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

  • Nutrition information estimate does not include rice.
  • For a gluten free stir fry, substitute the soy sauce with gluten-free coconut aminos, gluten-free tamari or gluten-free soy sauce.
