Instructions
- Heat the oil: Warm 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

- Sauté aromatics: Add minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Cook vegetables: Add sliced bell pepper, snow peas, broccoli florets, and julienned carrots. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.

- Combine all: Return potstickers to the skillet and pour the sauce over the potstickers and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top. Serve warm and enjoy.
Notes
- Use a nonstick skillet to prevent potstickers from sticking and to achieve a crispy texture.
- If fresh vegetables are unavailable, frozen vegetables can be used but adjust cooking time accordingly.
- For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free soy sauce.
- To add heat, consider adding a splash of chili sauce or red pepper flakes along with the sauce.
- This recipe is best served immediately to maintain the crispiness of the potstickers.
