This tried and true method works for any vegetable that is not a leafy green (i.e. spinach), and turns your steamed broccoli into the stuff you swoon over at restaurants.
Thinking Ahead: You can blanch the broccoli up to 1 day in advance. Once cooled to room temperature, cover and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.

This simple sauteed broccoli is an easy side dish that goes perfectly with just about anything including steak, fish, or just a bowt of rice!
Ingredients
- 1 large bunch broccoli, florets chopped into bite-sized pieces and stems peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick coins
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large shallot, thinly sliced
- 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Bring a large saucepan of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat. Add broccoli and blanch until a knife goes through easily, but a fork still meets some resistance, about 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and spread in a single layer on a large plate or baking sheet to cool.
- Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add shallot and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly until just starting to brown, about 1 minute. Add broccoli and cook, stirring, until broccoli is hot. Serve.
