Delicious Asparagus Stir-fry Recipe - Quick and Easy

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 bunch asparagus (trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup bell pepper (sliced)
  • 1 cup carrots (julienned)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • 1 cup green onions (sliced)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the vegetables

    Wash and chop the asparagus, bell pepper, carrots, and green onions.

    Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes for even cooking.
  2. Heat the oil

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

    Make sure the oil is hot before adding the vegetables to achieve a good stir-fry.
  3. Sauté garlic

    Add minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

    Do not let the garlic burn as it will become bitter.
  4. Add vegetables

    Add asparagus, bell pepper, and carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes.

    Keep the vegetables moving to cook them evenly and maintain their crunch.
  5. Season the stir-fry

    Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

    Adjust the soy sauce to taste if you prefer a saltier flavor.
  6. Serve

    Remove from heat, garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, and serve hot.

    This dish pairs well with rice or noodles.
