Sautéed Broccolini
Sautéed Broccolini with lemon, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 lb. broccolini
- 1 T. olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic thinly sliced
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
- 1/2 c. water
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- Trim about 1/2-inch off the bottom of the broccolini stems. Rinse the broccolini under cold water and shake off the excess water.
- In a large straight-sided skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the broccolini. Sauté until the broccolini is bright green and some of the stems and tips of the florets are lightly charred about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add the garlic, salt, and red pepper flakes. Continue to sauté until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the water and juice of half a lemon, cover, and cook until the broccolini is vibrant green and crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
