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.

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.

SESAME BROCCOLI



Sesame Broccoli image

Mild broccoli gets energized by this textured, rich dressing spiked with sweet miso and soy sauce. Crushed toasted sesame seeds create the intense flavor base for this rich, super nutty sauce. The dish is a great side to accompany any grilled or roasted protein; it can be made a few hours in advance and is equally tasty chilled or at room temperature. Any leftovers can be chopped and tossed with warm pasta and grated Parmesan the next day.

Time 20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
Ice, as needed
1/3 cup toasted white sesame seeds
2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
1 tablespoon white miso
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
1 1/2 pounds broccoli florets (1 1/2- to 2-inch pieces, about 10 cups)
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and prepare an ice bath.
  • While the water comes to a boil, in a small nonstick skillet over low heat, refresh the toasted sesame seeds, stirring frequently, until oils are released and seeds are warmed through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and grind until half the seeds are coarsely crushed. Alternatively, pulse once or twice in a food processor until half of the seeds are crushed.
  • Transfer sesame seeds to a large bowl and add the oil, miso, soy sauce and vinegar; mix or whisk well.
  • Once the water is boiling, blanch the broccoli by cooking it until bright green, about 1 minute, then drain and transfer to the ice water to cool. Drain well and pat dry.
  • Add the cooked broccoli to the dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate and serve chilled.

SAUTEED BROCCOLINI WITH GARLIC

Categories     Garlic     Side     Sauté     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Broccoli     Fall     Vegan     Boil     Gourmet     Sugar Conscious     Kidney Friendly     Pescatarian     Paleo     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 6 servings (as part of main course)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 lb Broccolini (sometimes called baby broccoli; 3 bunches), ends trimmed
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook Broccolini in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until stems are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes, then drain in a colander.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté half of garlic, stirring, until pale golden, about 30 seconds. Add half of Broccolini, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and repeat with remaining ingredients.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that have yellowing or wilted florets, as these are signs of old or damaged broccoli.
  • Cut the broccoli into even-sized florets: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Blanch the broccoli: Blanching is a quick process of boiling the broccoli in salted water for a few minutes, then immediately transferring it to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. This helps preserve the broccoli's bright green color and crisp texture.
  • Toast the garlic: Toasting the garlic in a little bit of oil brings out its flavor and makes it more aromatic.
  • Use a good quality orange juice: Freshly squeezed orange juice is best, but you can also use a good quality store-bought orange juice. Avoid using orange juice that has added sugar or preservatives.
  • Add the sesame seeds at the end: Toasting the sesame seeds in a dry skillet brings out their flavor and makes them more fragrant. Adding them at the end of the cooking process prevents them from burning.

Conclusion:

Sautéed broccoli with toasted garlic, orange, and sesame is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. The broccoli is tender-crisp and flavorful, while the toasted garlic, orange, and sesame seeds add a delicious and complex flavor profile. This dish is also a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious side dish, give this recipe a try!
