Ingredients:

  • 2 heads fresh organic broccoli, washed and florets removed (keep the stalks and stems & use them for some other recipe) or 2 – 12 oz. bags of frozen broccoli florets
  • 2 T. water
  • 3 organic cloves garlic, peeled and finely minced

  4. Once blackened, remove the broccoli from the skillet & place in a large glass bowl. Cover and keep warm.
  5. Repeat process with remaining garlic, olive oil, red pepper, butter & broccoli.
  6. When second batch of broccoli is finished, add it to the bowl with the original batch. Drizzle with toasted sesame oil & toss to coat.
