Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 red bell pepper
1 green bell pepper
1 jar of hoisen sauce
3 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1 tsp sesame seed oil
3 garlic cloves minced
1 tsp fresh ginger minced

Steps:

  • 1. Clean and slice your peppers thinly or your desired thickness. Mince the garlic and the ginger. Sometimes I use the jarred ones but usually I use fresh ginger. If you are going to put meat in it you can cut it into thin strips that way it cooks at the same time as the veggies.
  • 2. Heat your walk or skillet add your oils and vegetables cook for 1 minute. Add ginger and garlic cook for another 1-3 minutes depends on how cooked you want your veggies. I like mine crunchy but soft. Add hoisen sauce and soy sauce. If you are adding meat add at the same time as the veggies so it cooks completely through.
  • 3. Serve over rice noodles or cooked white rice. If you want to make this spicy yo can add some red pepper flakes or Thai chilis if you find any. You can also add any veggie you want sometimes I do mushrooms or carrots. I like to top it off with some sesame seeds for crunch.
