By: Michelle Maskaly, The Adirondack Chick
Stir fry recipes are always great for a simple weeknight dinner. This Spicy Honey Vegetable Stir Fry is a delicious salty and sweet dish that will surely remind you of the food at your favorite restaurant.
Ingredients
- 1 green pepper
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 onion
- 1 can (8-ounces) diced water chestnuts, rinsed and drained
- 1 zucchini
- 1 tablespoon to 2 tablespoons of honey
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- grape seed oil
- garlic salt, to taste
- fresh ground pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Cook the rice according to the package. Cut all the vegetables, except for the water chestnuts, into thin slices.
- Coat the bottom of a pan with grape seed oil, and heat. (You can sub olive oil, but I like the taste that the grape seed oil leaves. It's much cleaner and transparent.)
- Add the garlic, onions and season with garlic salt and pepper. Cook for a minute and add the zucchini, peppers and water chestnuts. Stir in the crushed ground red pepper, and cook for about a minute.
- Drizzle honey over the veggies, mix and cook until desired tenderness.
