Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 small shallots, thinly sliced
1 head broccoli (1 1/4 pounds), cut into florets, stems peeled and cut into 1/2-inch coins
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup water
Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon (1 1/2 teaspoons zest; 3 tablespoons juice)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add shallots, and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add broccoli, and season with salt and pepper; cook, stirring, 1 minute.
  • Stir in the water, and bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover, and simmer until broccoli is bright green and tender (it should offer little resistance when pierced with the tip of a paring knife), about 4 minutes. (All the liquid should have evaporated; if not, remove lid and continue cooking until dry.) Stir in lemon juice and half the zest.
  • Transfer to a serving platter. Serve warm or at room temperature, drizzled with oil and sprinkled with remaining lemon zest.
