Side Dish Recipe for Broccoli and Carrot Stir Fry with Garlic




stir fry recipe This dish can be served as a side dish or meatless main entree. In this recipe, broccoli florets and thinly sliced carrots are quickly stir-fried and then lightly steamed until crisp-tender. A shower of garlic and herbs finishes this deliciously nutritious side dish. If you use the broccoli stems, cut them into thin slices. You can use this recipe as a basic guide, substituting other fresh garden vegetables such as cauliflower, asparagus, peppers, brussel sprouts, or green beans.

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons olive oil
6 cups broccoli florets
2 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch slices
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano or 3/4 teaspoon dried
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Cooking Instructions:

Heat the oil in a large, preferably nonstick skillet. Add the broccoli and carrots and stir-fry over high heat until the vegetables begin to brown on the edges, about 2 minutes.

Add 1/4 cup of water; reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, covered, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.

Uncover; raise the heat to medium-high. Add the garlic and oregano and stir-fry the mixture until the water evaporates and the garlic is fragrant and turns a pale golden brown, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

Yield: 4 side dish servings
