This gorgeous, luscious stir-fry will knock your socks off! It’s so easy to make and is big on flavor, and here’s my favorite thing about it: You can prep all the veggies and make the sauce up to 24 hours in advance, and just keep them in separate containers in the fridge. Then, when you get home after a crazy-long day, all you have to do is heat the oil in a skillet and you’ll have dinner within about 12.112983474 minutes.

Serve it over rice. Serve it over noodles. Eat it straight out of the skillet, it doesn’t matter. I could eat dishes like this every day for the rest of my life.

How to Make It

Step 1

In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sherry, brown sugar, cornstarch, sriracha, and ginger. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and peppers, and stir, cooking for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute more, stirring continuously. Add the zucchini and stir it around, cooking it for 2 minutes more. Add the baby corn and broccoli and cook for a couple of minutes, then, while the veggies are still firm, pour in the sauce.

Step 3

Stir the veggies in the sauce, cooking for 1 to 2 minutes more, or until the sauce is very thick. If it needs to be a little saucier, pour in 1/4 to 1/2 cup hot water and splash in a little more soy sauce. Serve over noodles or rice, with a sprinkling of sesame seeds.
