Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large head of broccoli, cut into large florets with some stalk attached
2 garlic cloves, 1 finely grated, 1 thinly sliced, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons sambal oelek
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 cup sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar, divided
3/4 cup vegetable oil, divided
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more

4 cups chopped Tuscan kale leaves
