Instructions
- Place all the sauce ingredients in a medium bowl, whisk to combine, and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sliced carrots and sauté for 2-4 minutes or until the onions begin to soften.
- Next, add the bell pepper and broccoli and continue cooking, stirring frequently, for an additional 6-8 minutes (or until the broccoli is slightly tender but still has a bite to it).
- While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions.
- Add the drained chickpeas to the pot with the cooked vegetables. Immediately reduce the heat to low and pour in the stir-fry sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes over low heat until the sauce begins to thicken and coat the ingredients, creating a thick sauce consistency.
- Stir in the cooked rice noodles, fresh basil, and cashews, tossing everything together to combine.
- Serve the stir-fry with a garnish of sliced green onions.
