Asian Style Stir Fry Veggies are bursting with color and flavor, and are a simple, delicious way to serve fresh vegetables with your meals. Even kids will like this simple side dish!

Prep The Stir Fry Veggies
Clean veggies, dry and then prep them, by cutting them into bite sized slices or chunks. This time, I used broccoli, yellow squash, green zucchini, red and orange bell peppers, brown onion, baby carrots, and mushrooms.
Truthfully, any combination of vegetables you have available will work well (I’ve also added bok choy, green peppers, fresh asparagus or green beans, at times). Set aside.
Make The Asian Style Sauce
Mix Asian-style sauce in a small cup or bowl. I simply used a fork to mix the ingredients (water, soy sauce, ground ginger and cornstarch) together. Set aside.
Stir Fry The Veggies
In a large skillet, heat oil on medium-high heat until very hot (but not smoking). Add the vegetables all at once (except for minced garlic).
Cook, stirring often, until vegetables are cooked (about 5-6 minutes). They should be crisp-tender when done. Add the minced garlic, and stir, to prevent burning. Cook an additional minute.
Add Sauce To The Stir Fried Veggies
Give the sauce a final stir, then pour the Asian sauce into skillet, and stir to combine. The sauce will begin to thicken almost immediately. Continue to stir. If the sauce becomes too thick, add just a touch of water to skillet and stir until all veggies are coated with sauce, and are heated through.
Once the Asian style stir fry veggies are heated through, and covered with sauce, they are ready to serve. For this meal, I served them as a side dish, along with a piece of pan-seared salmon and steamed rice. YUM!
That’s it! I really hope you will consider making these Asian Style Stir Fry Veggies. They add a LOT of color and wonderful flavor to any meal! It’s a great way to get more vegetables onto the plate, and they really do taste great (hint, hint).
Hope you have an absolutely WONDERFUL day, and remember… be KIND to those you encounter throughout your day. You never know what others are going through… why not be their bright beacon of hope for that day! God Bless You!
