- 3 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
- 2 tsp. rice vinegar

- Make the teriyaki sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together vegetable broth, tamari, maple syrup, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside to let flavors meld.
- Prepare vegetables: Clean mushrooms by wiping with a damp cloth or rinsing quickly, then chop into uniform pieces. Trim snow peas by removing ends and any tough strings. Slice green onions thinly.
- Cook mushrooms: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms along with 1-2 tablespoons of water or vegetable broth to sauté without oil. Cook mushrooms for about 3 minutes until they begin to soften, adding more liquid if necessary to prevent sticking.
- Add snow peas and green onions: Stir in the snow peas and sliced green onions, continuing to sauté for another 3-4 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender but still vibrant in color.
- Add the teriyaki sauce: Give the prepared sauce another quick stir and carefully pour it into the skillet. Stir well to coat all the vegetables evenly. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and clings to the vegetables.
- Serve: Remove from heat and transfer to serving dishes. Garnish with optional sesame seeds if desired and serve warm, ideally over steamed rice for a complete meal.
 
	 
	
		Notes
		
			
- Use tamari for a gluten-free version instead of regular soy sauce.
- You can substitute mushrooms with other varieties like portobello or button mushrooms based on preference.
- Adjust the sweetness of the sauce by varying maple syrup quantity.
- For oil-free cooking, use vegetable broth or water to sauté vegetables to reduce fat content.
- Fresh ginger adds bright flavor but ground ginger can be used in a pinch.
- Serve this dish over rice, quinoa, or noodles for a hearty meal.
