Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prep Veggies: Wash and chop your vegetables. Slice 4 cups of cabbage, 1 cup of bell peppers, and 1 cup of carrots into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
  2. Make Peanut Sauce: Whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and Sriracha in a mixing bowl until smooth. Adjust consistency with warm water if necessary.
  3. Heat Skillet: Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add coconut oil. Heat until shimmering, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Stir-Fry Vegetables: Add chopped cabbage, bell peppers, and carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes, until tender but crisp.
  5. Combine with Sauce: Reduce heat to medium, pour peanut sauce over veggies, and toss for about 1 minute until well-coated.
  6. Serve: Transfer stir-fry to plates and garnish with crushed peanuts or sesame seeds.
