Ingredients

• ⅓ cup creamy natural peanut butter
• ½ cup water, divided
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce, divided
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 1½ pounds broccoli crowns, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• ¼- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper, or to taste
• ¼ cup chopped unsalted peanuts

Directions

• Whisk peanut butter, ¼ cup water, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce and vinegar in a medium bowl until smooth. Set aside. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli and cook, stirring frequently, until beginning to soften and brown in spots, about 6 minutes. Add the remaining ¼ cup water and 1 tablespoon soy sauce to the pan along with bell pepper and garlic.
