Instructions

1. Mix the sauce ingredients in a bowl and set aside, or add them straight to the pan at the chickpea step.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook about 2 minutes, until translucent.
3. Add the bell peppers, stir, cover and cook 2 minutes.
4. Add the broccoli, stir, cover and cook 1 minute. To avoid overcooking, you can set the broccoli aside and add it back at the end.
5. Add the chickpeas, the sauce, a generous pinch of salt, black pepper and cayenne. Lower the heat to medium, cover and cook 4 minutes.
6. Taste the sauce and adjust with more vinegar, sugar or salt to your liking.
7. Stir the cornstarch into room-temperature water, add it to the pan, mix well, cover and cook 2 minutes until the sauce thickens. Fold the broccoli back in if you set it aside.
8. Garnish with sesame seeds, red pepper flakes and scallions, and serve with cooked rice or grains.
