Yo, veggie lovers (or soon-to-be veggie lovers), let’s whip up this Broccoli and Mushroom Stir Fry that’s so good, even meat-eaters will ask for seconds.
It’s easy, healthy, and full of that takeout-style flavor but made at home—like a boss!
What You’ll Need
Here’s the all-star cast:
- 2 cups broccoli florets (aka little trees)
- 1 cup mushrooms (sliced, any kind you like—portobello, button, whatever)
- 1 red bell pepper (sliced thin for some color vibes)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 tbsp ginger (grated, or cheat with the jarred stuff)
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce (or hoisin sauce if you don’t have it)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp cornstarch (mixed with 2 tbsp water for a slurry)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Sesame seeds (optional but makes it fancy)
How to Make It
- Get Prepped
Wash and chop all your veggies because nobody wants dirty stir fry. Mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and set aside.
- Heat It Up
Heat a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it get nice and hot (but not smoking—you’re not trying to set off the smoke alarm).
- Cook the Veggies
Toss in the broccoli and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for about 3 minutes until they start to soften. Then add the mushrooms, garlic, and ginger. Keep stirring for another 2-3 minutes. Your kitchen should smell AMAZING right now.
- Sauce It Up
Pour in your sauce mix and stir everything around. Let it cook for another 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and coats all the veggies like a glossy dream.
- Serve It Up
Sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional, but looks pro). Serve over steamed rice, noodles, or just eat it straight out of the pan—no judgment.
Pro Tips
- Want it spicy? Add a pinch of red chili flakes or a splash of sriracha.
- Leftovers? Toss them in a wrap or salad for a next-day glow-up.
