SERVES 4
- 1 lb broccoli floret
- 1-2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2-4 garlic cloves, sliced thin
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, to taste
- salt & freshly ground black pepper
- Steam broccoli over a pot of boiling water, or in a veggie steamer, for about 5 minutes.
- Feel free to steam more or less, depending on how your family likes their veggies cooked.
- Keep in mind that you will also be sautéing the broccoli in the next step.
- In a large saute pan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the garlic and saute for about 45 seconds to impart its flavors into the oil.
- Before the garlic begins to brown, add the red pepper flakes and broccoli to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
- Season with salt and pepper and serve.
