Ingredients
- 1 bunch broccoli about 1 pound
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- toasted sesame seeds for garnish, optional
Sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- ½ teaspoon brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Cut broccoli into florets. Peel the tough outer layer from the broccoli stem and cut broccoli into 1" pieces.
- Combine sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a pan over medium high heat and add broccoli. Cook 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water or broth to the pan and cook an additional 2 minutes or until water evaporates.
- Stir in garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add sauce mixture and cook an additional 2 minutes more or until heated through. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
Notes
- Broccoli has the best flavor when it's bright green and still slightly crisp. Be sure not to overcook it.
- Sesame seeds are best when toasted. To toast the seeds, place them in a dry non-stick pan over medium heat. Stir or shake the seeds until they become browned and fragrant.
- We love chili flakes for a bit of heat. If you'd prefer, you can skip the flakes or add a bit of sriracha or sambal in place.
