Prep Your Veggies: Wash and cut all your vegetables. Try to slice them evenly for consistent cooking.
Heat the Pan or Griddle: Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat, adding a dash of sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Add Garlic: Once the pan is hot, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, but be careful not to burn it!
Stir-Fry the Veggies: Toss in the broccoli, bell peppers, zucchini, and carrots. Stir constantly for about 5-7 minutes until they’re tender but still crisp.
Add Seasonings: Pour in the soy sauce and additional sesame oil. Stir everything together for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld.
Serve: Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if using.
