Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables & Fruit

  • 2 cups Green Beans, trimmed
  • 1 Green Bell Pepper, sliced
  • 1 Yellow Bell Pepper, sliced
  • 1 Pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into triangles
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced

Oils & Seasoning

  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil. In a large frying pan or wok, warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking.
  2. Sauté the garlic. Add the minced clove of garlic to the pan and fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant and golden, taking care not to burn it.
  3. Add the green beans and bell peppers. Toss in 2 cups of green beans, 1 sliced green bell pepper, and 1 sliced yellow bell pepper. Stir-fry these vegetables for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently to ensure even cooking and to maintain a crisp-tender texture.
  4. Incorporate the pineapple. Add the pineapple triangles to the pan and continue stir-frying everything together for an additional 10 minutes. Cook until the vegetables reach your desired tenderness and the pineapple pieces begin to caramelize and brown slightly.
  5. Serve and enjoy. Transfer the stir fry to a serving dish and present it as a flavorful side dish or a light, refreshing meal. Enjoy the perfect harmony of sweet pineapple and savory vegetables.

Notes

  • You can adjust cooking time based on how crisp or tender you prefer your vegetables.
  • For extra zest, consider adding a splash of soy sauce or a sprinkle of chili flakes during the stir-fry.
  • Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor; canned pineapple may add unwanted moisture.
  • This recipe pairs well with steamed rice or noodles to create a complete meal.
