Broccolini with Lemon image

Broccolini looks like baby broccoli, but it's actually a natural hybrid of broccoli and Chinese kale. (If you can't find it, broccoli rabe can be used in its place.) The tender stalks are blanched first and then sauteed with lemon zest for a quick vegetable dish.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning. I added some salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and it was much better.

This dish was a bit too lemony for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a little less lemon juice. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.
