Ingredients for this special Watkins recipe:
- 1 cup red bell pepper strips
- 1 cup coarsely chopped onion
- 1 cup diagonally sliced carrots
- 1 cup diagonally sliced celery
- 1 cup fresh broccoli florets
- 2 Tbsp./30 mL cornstarch
- 1-1/4 cup /325 mL water
- 1 cup fresh or frozen snow peas
- 1 Tbsp. Watkins Garlic & Parsley Grapeseed Oil
- 1-1/2 tsp. Watkins Garlic Granules
- 1-1/2 tsp. Watkins Ginger or Watkins Organic Ginger (either one)
- 2 tsp./10 mL Watkins Soup Base
Start by placing a large skillet or wok over high heat on your stovetop. Add Watkins-brand grapeseed oil and heat the wok or skillet until hot. Next add the carrots, celery, red pepper and onions. Stir-fry 3 minutes. When 3 minutes is up, add the broccoli, garlic granules, ginger and snow peas. Once added, follow by combining the water, cornstarch and soup base. Once combined, pour over the vegetables. Cook this mixture until it begins to boil and thicken, stirring often during the process. Reduce your burner heat to the “low” setting on your stovetop. Cover and simmer the wok or skillet just until the vegetables are crisp and tender. This should make about 6 servings.
