By classycook

Ingredients

• 6-8 servings
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 1/2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons hot sesame oil (or hot pepper oil, which is found more readily at the grocery store, may be substituted)
• 1 tablespoon fructose or sugar (optional)
• 8 cups bite-sized broccoli florets and peeled stems (about two medium crowns)

Preparation

Step 1

To prepare the sauce, combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, lemon zest, freshly grated ginger, sesame oil, hot oil and fructose in a small bowl. Whisk to combine.
Steam the broccoli for about 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain well.
In a large bowl, combine the broccoli and sauce and toss to coat the broccoli.
Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
