Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccolini

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccolini and blanch for 2-3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Drain and transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the blanched broccolini to the skillet with garlic. Stir in the Calabrian chili paste, chopped preserved lemon, Castelvetrano olives, and almonds. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    Add Cheeses

    Remove the skillet from heat and crumble the French feta and mozzarella over the top. Gently toss to combine, allowing the cheese to melt slightly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a side or main dish.
