Method
Preparation
- 1
Prep the Broccolini
Rinse the broccolini thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Trim the ends of the stems to ensure they are fresh.
- 2
Prepare the Garlic
Mince the garlic cloves finely. This will allow the garlic to release its flavor more effectively during cooking.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, add the olive oil and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
- 4
Sauté the Broccolini
Add the broccolini to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they turn bright green and start to soften.
- 5
Add Garlic and Seasonings
Add the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and broccolini is tender but still crisp.
- 6
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the broccolini. Toss to coat evenly.
- 7
Serve
Transfer the sautéed broccolini to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a side dish.
