How to make Vegetable Stir-Fry

Cooking Vegetables

  2. Step 2

    Remove from heat and prepare the sauce by blending the reduced chicken broth with extra virgin olive oil, pepper, and lemon juice using a blender. The consistency should resemble mayonnaise.

Serving

  1. Step 1

    Pour the sauce over the vegetables and serve on a small plate or in a small casserole dish as a starter at the table.
