Ingredients
1 medium red bell pepper, sliced into strips
1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced into strips
1 medium carrot, peeled and sliced into thin rounds
1 cup broccoli florets
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 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, and chili garlic sauce. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce is well mixed.
Add the sliced red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, carrot rounds, broccoli florets, snap peas, and red onion wedges to the bowl with the sauce. Toss well to coat all the vegetables evenly.
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3 minutes.
Place the coated vegetables in the air fryer basket in a single layer. If necessary, cook in two batches to avoid overcrowding.
Air fry the vegetables for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking the basket or stirring the vegetables halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
Once the vegetables are tender and slightly charred at the edges, remove them from the air fryer and transfer to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the chopped cilantro, basil, mint, and toasted sesame seeds over the cooked vegetables.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a light main course.
