nonstick skillet, heat the oil until hot but not smoking over medium heat.
Add the bell pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 5
minutes. Add the scallions, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring frequently
until the scallions are tender, about 4 minutes longer.
Stir in the snow peas and cook until the snow peas are just crisp-tender,
about 1 minute. Add the broth, salt, and black pepper and bring to a boil.
In a cup, combine the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of water, stir to blend.,
and stir into the sauce. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is
slightly thickened, about 1 minute longer.
Meanwhile, cook the angel hair pasta in the boiling water until just tender.
Drain well. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl, add the pasta,
and toss to combine. Spoon the pasta mixture onto 4 plates and serve. Makes
