Description
Healthy garlic-sauteed broccoli with cranberries and pinenuts turns a regular side dish into something special. It takes just 10 minutes to make and is perfect on its own or with any main course such as fish, chicken, beef, lamb, or pork.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (500 g) Broccoli cut into small florets
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 large Garlic cloves sliced
- ½ tsp Kosher salt
- ½ tsp Pepper
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- ¼ cup Dried cranberries
- ¼ cup Pinenuts
Instructions
- In a large skillet, over medium heat, add olive oil and garlic. Cook these for a minute, then add the broccoli florets. Pro tip - Make sure the florets are in a single layer so they cook evenly.
- Season with salt and black pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of water, cover the skillet and cook on low for 3 to 4 minutes. Pro tip - Covering the pan will keep the stem inside which helps soften the stalk making them tender.
- Check to ensure the stalks (stems) are tender. If not, cook uncovered for another 2 minutes. Add the cranberries and pine nuts (or other nuts).Pro tip - We do not cook broccoli covered for more than 4 minutes because it may lose its beautiful green color.
- Drizzle with lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning adding a pinch of salt and black pepper if necessary.
