Re: Broccoli

Easiest is just to steam it and add a little lemon and pepper and kosher salt. Or cheese sauce. Or Buerre Blanc.

You can also saute with a little olive oil and garlic.


I love roasting it.

But my favorite way? Hayley's Burnt Broccoli

She's a genius.Chat Icon

Re: Broccoli

For a change from steaming or roasting it, sometimes I make a cold broccoli salad. its very simple and tasty.
Let it cook in boiling water for 3 mins, you still want a crunch to it. Dice red pepper, red onion and toss it all together with Good seasons vinaigrette. Chill for a few hours.

Re: Broccoli


I mixed olive oil/garlic/salt/pepper and hot pepper flakes.
and DH put it on the grill in a veggie basket. It came out soooo good...some pieces burnt alittle - it was crunchy but not under cooked

i would usually saute it with olive oil, garlic and some chopped tomato (in the can is fine - 15 oz or whatever of the plain or tomato and basil mix) then season it with lots of red pepper flakes and S&P

Re: Broccoli

I like it in the oven with EVOO and salt.

Can be more than a side, but sauteed with EVOO, garlic, salt, pepper, parmesan cheese served over pasta.

Or sauteed with shrimp served over rice or cous cous.

Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper and then roast in the oven for about 20 min. After you take it out, toss with a little more oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, pine nuts, and parmesan cheese. Yummy...
