By Unblond1

04/10/14 - This was great. I had it for lunch, topped with a fried egg, a bit of grated Parmesan and a squeeze of fresh lemon. Yummy! It should be equally good as a vegetable side dish.

Ingredients

• 1 large bunch broccolette, rinsed
• 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
• salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 large garlic clove, thinly sliced
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/4 cup of chicken broth

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium (NON-STICK) sauté pan, over high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and heat until shimmering.

Carefully add the brocolette to the sauté pan and cover with a silicone lid (it spits).

Season with salt and pepper and cook, until slightly charred, approximately 2 minutes, turning once.

Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and continue to cook until fragrant, approximately 1 minute.

Add ¼ cup of broth and cover the sauté pan with a lid. Let cook, undisturbed, until the water evaporates, approximately 1 to 2 minutes.

Drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil or fresh lemon juice and serve.
