Ingredients

340-g pkg frozen imitation crabmeat
500 g frozen vegetables, or 4 cups sliced fresh vegetables
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, or 1 1/2 tsp bottled ginger
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, or soy sauce, preferably salt-reduced

Instructions

Cut crab into large chunks--it will separate into smaller pieces during cooking. Measure 1/4 cup water into a frying pan. Place over medium-high heat.
When boiling, add frozen crab meat, vegetables, ginger and garlic. Cook, uncovered and stirring often, until vegetables are hot, from 3 to 5 minutes.
Stir in teriyaki sauce. Serve right away over hot rice or noodles.

This hot satisfying meal is ready in less time than it takes for take-out food to arrive.
