Ingredients
  

2 ripe peaches, sliced into wedges

1 red bell pepper, julienned

1 cup snap peas, trimmed and washed

1 small onion, thinly sliced

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

1-inch piece of fresh ginger, grated

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for stir-frying)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Fresh basil or mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Cooked rice or quinoa (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by washing and slicing the peaches and vegetables. Make sure everything is ready to go, as this stir fry comes together quickly.

    Make the Sauce: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey (or maple syrup), and rice vinegar until well combined. Set this flavorful mixture aside for later.

      Heat the Oil: Take a large skillet or wok and place it over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and wait until it becomes hot and shimmering.

        Sauté Aromatics: Once the oil is hot, add the sliced onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion begins to soften. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 30 seconds until your kitchen is filled with a fragrant aroma.

          Add Vegetables: Introduce the red bell pepper and snap peas to the pan. Stir-fry these vibrant veggies for about 3-4 minutes, allowing them to retain a tender-crisp texture and bright color.

            Incorporate Peaches: Gently fold the sliced peaches into the pan. Drizzle the sauce you prepared in step 2 over the mixture. Stir everything together carefully, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the peaches are heated through and start to caramelize slightly.

              Season: Taste your stir fry and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as desired. If you prefer a sweeter dish, feel free to add a bit more honey or syrup to enhance the sweetness.

                Serve: To serve, heap the stir fry generously over cooked rice or quinoa. For an added touch of freshness and color, garnish with either fresh basil or mint leaves if desired.
