SAUTéED BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC AND CHILE



Sautéed Broccoli With Garlic and Chile image

This speedy, two-step recipe yields broccoli - or practically any vegetable - that is perfectly browned and cooked all the way through. After florets and thinly sliced stems are seared, add a little water and cover so the broccoli steams in its own juices until fork-tender. Not only does this bring out the vegetable's inherent sweetness, but it softens whatever flavorings you add without burning them. This recipe embraces the prickly heat of chile and garlic, but you could also use ground spices, thyme or rosemary, ginger or scallions, capers or olives. Swap the broccoli for sliced carrots or sweet potatoes, cauliflower florets, broccoli rabe, or green beans, adjusting cook time and water as necessary.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound broccoli, cut into 1 1/2- to 2-inch-long florets, stems sliced 1/4-inch thick
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 garlic cloves, sliced
Red-pepper flakes, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high. Add the broccoli stems, season with salt and pepper, and cook, undisturbed, until starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the florets, season generously with salt and pepper, and shake into an even layer. Cook, undisturbed, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes and stir until the garlic is fragrant, less than 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium, add 3 tablespoons water, cover, and cook until the broccoli is bright green and fork-tender, 2 to 3 minutes, reducing heat if needed to prevent burning. Season to taste with salt, pepper and red-pepper flakes.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh broccoli rabe: Look for broccoli rabe with bright green leaves and firm stalks. Avoid any wilted or yellowing leaves.
  • Wash the broccoli rabe thoroughly: Rinse the broccoli rabe under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Trim the broccoli rabe: Cut off the tough ends of the broccoli rabe stalks. You can also remove the leaves from the stalks if desired.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will allow you to cook the broccoli rabe in a single layer, which will help it cook evenly.
  • Cook the broccoli rabe over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the broccoli rabe and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Stir the broccoli rabe frequently: This will help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Season the broccoli rabe to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the broccoli rabe immediately: Broccoli rabe is best served immediately after cooking, while it is still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Sautéed broccoli rabe with garlic is a simple but delicious dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course. It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals. If you are looking for a healthy and flavorful dish, sautéed broccoli rabe with garlic is a great option.
