Categories     side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 head broccoli, about 1 1/4 pounds
2 plum tomatoes, about 1/2 pound
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/8 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Cut the tops of the broccoli into bite-size florets. Cut the broccoli stems into 1 1/2-inch lengths, trimming and discarding the outer coating. There should be about 6 cups of broccoli pieces.
  • Meanwhile, bring to a boil enough water to cover the broccoli when added. Add the broccoli, and after the water returns to a boil, cook another 2 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
  • Peel the tomatoes, and cut them lengthwise into eighths. Scrape away and discard the seeds and the pulpy portions around them. Set the tomato strips aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet, and add the broccoli and pepper flakes.
  • Add the tomato strips, garlic, salt and pepper. Cook, shaking the skillet and stirring so that the ingredients blend and cook evenly, about 2 minutes.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. The broccoli was cooked well, but the tomatoes and onions were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably make this recipe again, but I would use less sugar next time.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less salt.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The tomatoes and onions helped to offset the bitterness of the broccoli, and the Parmesan cheese added a nice touch of flavor. I would definitely make this again.

The broccoli was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the tomatoes and onions were delicious. I would make this recipe again, but I would cook the broccoli for a shorter amount of time.
