Ingredients
- 500 grams broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 4 pieces garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 100 milliliters white wine
- 0.5 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the broccoli by rinsing it thoroughly under cold water and cutting the florets into bite-sized pieces. Peel the stems if desired and slice them thinly.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the sliced garlic to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 4
Add the red pepper flakes and stir for 30 seconds to release their flavor.
Step 5
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the broccoli to the pan. Toss to coat the broccoli evenly with the garlic and oil mixture.
Step 6
Pour in the white wine and stir to combine. Cover the pan with a lid, letting the broccoli steam for 4-5 minutes, or until just tender but still bright green.
Step 7
Remove the lid and season the broccoli with salt and black pepper. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, allowing any excess liquid to evaporate.
Step 8
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the broccoli and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Toss gently to combine.
Step 9
Remove from heat and transfer the broccoli to a serving plate. Serve warm as a side dish to accompany your favorite main course.
