Directions

Prep 10 minCook 10 min
  1. 1

    Cut broccoli into bite sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Boil in salted water for about 5 to 7 minutes (broccoli should just start to soften).

  3. 3

    Rinse under COLD water (to stop the cooking).

  4. 4

    Dry to remove any excess water.

  5. 5

    In a large skillet, heat the oil until hot.

  6. 6

    Add the garlic and pepper flakes.

  7. 7

    Sauté for 1 minute.

  8. 8

    Add the broccoli and "some" of the broth. (I say "some" as you don't want it soaking in it, you just want it to help steam and add flavor)

  9. 9

    Cook for 2 to 4 minutes (depending on the way you like your broccoli, tender or crisp) stirring the entire time. Season lightly with table salt.
