Equipment

Ingredients

For the teriyaki sauce

For the stir fry

  • 1 tablespoon oil (for cooking)
  • 1 yellow onion (diced)
  • 1 red bell pepper (diced)
  • 1 large head of broccoli (cut into small florets)
  • 1 can chickpeas (400g / 15oz) drained and rinsed

Instructions

  • Whisk together all of the ingredients for the teriyaki sauce together in a bowl and set to one side.
  • Chop the vegetables and drain and rinse the canned chickpeas.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok on a high heat.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the onion and bell pepper to the pan. Cook for a few minutes til the onion starts to soften.
  • Add in the broccoli and cook for another couple of minutes, stirring occasionally til it is bright green in color.
  • Add in the drained chickpeas and cook again for a couple of minutes.
  • Pour in the teriyaki sauce and stir to coat the vegetables. Cook for a few more minutes til the sauce has thickened and serve.

Notes

  • Double the teriyaki sauce recipe for meal prep. You can freeze it for up to 3 months and it will keep well in the fridge for up to a week.
  • Cut your veggies fairly small so that they combine easily, cook quickly and are easy to eat.
  • Make sure the oil in your skillet or wok is hot before adding the veggies. They'll cook quickly without getting too soft.
  • Don't overcook your veggies. The onion should be soft, but you want the broccoli to still have a bit of crunch to it.
