Instructions

  1. Make the stir fry sauce by whisking the peanut butter, hoisin sauce, ginger, lime juice, and water together in a small bowl. Adjust the water for desired consistency.
  2. Heat sesame oil in a pan over medium heat. Add capsicums, spring onions, and broccoli. Sauté for about 5 minutes until broccoli is almost cooked.
  3. Add the chickpeas and sauce to the pan, mixing thoroughly to coat. Cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes on low heat.
  4. Remove from heat and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Adjust lime or salt to taste.
  5. Serve and enjoy, possibly straight from the pan!

Notes

  1. Toasting sesame seeds before use adds extra aroma. Adjust veggies and proteins based on preference.
