→ Sauce

07 - 2 cloves garlic, minced

09 - 60 milliliters low-sodium vegetable broth
10 - 2 tablespoons coconut aminos or low-sodium soy sauce
11 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

→ Garnish

15 - 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped

# How to Make It:

01 - Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Slice, chop, and mince each as directed in the ingredient list.
02 - Combine vegetable broth, coconut aminos, lemon juice, optional maple syrup, and crushed red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and black pepper, whisking until well integrated.
03 - Warm a large wok or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable broth to prevent sticking.
04 - Add sliced red onion and carrot to the pan. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes until they just begin to soften.
05 - Incorporate broccoli, bell pepper, zucchini, and snap peas. Stir-fry for 7 to 8 minutes until brightly colored and tender-crisp.
06 - Add the minced garlic and ginger. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute until fragrant.
07 - Pour the prepared sauce over the sautéed vegetables. Stir well to coat evenly and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the vegetables are glossy and the sauce is fragrant.
08 - Remove from the heat. Top with chopped fresh herbs, sesame seeds if desired, and serve immediately with lime wedges.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For added protein, include tofu or tempeh. Adjust the selection of vegetables according to season or preference. Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Pairs well with brown rice, quinoa, or noodles.
