A vibrant and healthy Thai-inspired vegetable medley cooked to perfection in the air fryer. This quick and easy recipe combines fresh vegetables with authentic Thai flavors for a delicious and nutritious side dish or light meal.
1 medium red bell pepper, sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1 medium carrot, peeled and sliced into thin rounds
1 cup broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup snap peas, trimmed
1 small red onion, sliced into thin wedges
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Thai basil
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, carrot, broccoli florets, snap peas, and red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, and chili flakes until well combined.
Pour the sauce over the vegetables and toss thoroughly to coat all pieces evenly.
Place the coated vegetables in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Cook the vegetables in the air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
Once the vegetables are tender and slightly charred at the edges, transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh cilantro and Thai basil over the cooked vegetables and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately as a side dish or over steamed jasmine rice for a complete meal.
