Description
A delicious stir-fried broccoli dish coated in a savory sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup low sodium soy sauce
- ½ cup vegetable stock
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- ½ tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1–2 teaspoons ginger (grated or minced)
- 1 tablespoon sugar or honey (more for a sweeter sauce)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Pinch red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil
- 1 ½ pounds broccoli (cut into 1–2 inch florets and stems sliced ¼ inch)
- 4 cloves garlic (thinly sliced)
- ¾ – 1 cup stir fry sauce (see notes)
- ⅓ cup peanuts (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons scallions (thinly sliced)
Instructions
- The Sauce: whisk together the stir fry sauce ingredients and set aside. Or, shake them in a jar with a lid for maximum efficiency.
- Drizzle oil in a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add broccoli and stir to coat with oil.
- Stir in the garlic and ginger and simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally so the garlic doesn’t burn.
- Start by adding approximately ¾ cup of the stir-fry sauce. If you like it extra saucy, feel free to add more sauce or reserve the rest for later.
- Bring to a simmer, reducing heat to medium as needed.
- Cover and cook for 4-5 minutes until the broccoli is tender-crisp and the sauce has thickened.
- Remove from heat and serve over rice as desired.
- Garnish with chopped peanuts, green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds as desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- To store, keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Feel free to add more vegetables or protein of your choice for a heartier meal.
