SAUTéED BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC AND CHILE
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.

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 for Making the Best Garlic Broccoli:
- Choose fresh, tender broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have loose, open florets.
- Cut the broccoli into uniform florets: This will help them cook evenly. If the florets are too large, they may not cook through properly.
- Blanch the broccoli before stir-frying: This will help to preserve its鮮豔的綠色 and crisp texture. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately transfer the broccoli to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help to prevent the broccoli from sticking. If you don't have a well-seasoned wok or skillet, you can use a nonstick skillet. However, be careful not to overheat the skillet, as this can cause the broccoli to burn.
- Stir-fry the broccoli over high heat: This will help to create a slightly charred exterior and tender-crisp interior. Be sure to stir the broccoli constantly so that it cooks evenly.
- Add the garlic and ginger towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from burning. Garlic and ginger can easily burn, so it's important to add them towards the end of cooking so that they have just enough time to release their flavor.
- Season the broccoli to taste with salt and pepper: Once the broccoli is cooked through, season it to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as soy sauce, oyster sauce, or chili sauce, to taste.
Conclusion:
Garlic broccoli is a quick and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of vegetables. By following these tips, you can make the best garlic broccoli that is sure to impress your family and friends.
