BROCCOLI SAUTé WITH GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a 10" skillet over medium-low heat.

GARLIC OIL SAUTEED PASTA WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil, garlic, and pepper flakes over medium heat until fragrant. Once the garlic has turned golden in color, remove it from the pan. You are left with garlic-infused oil in the pan. Add the broccoli to the pan.
• Cook's Note: Be sure the broccoli is completely dry before tossing it into the pan.
• Toss the broccoli to coat with the oil. Season with salt and pepper and saute over medium heat until the broccoli barely loses some of its crunch, about 5 minutes. Turn the heat up to high and deglaze the pan with the red wine vinegar. Add a few tablespoons of water, if needed.
• Cook's Note: Use pasta water if the pasta was made fresh.
• Add in the pasta and toss to coat with the oil. Top with Parmesan cheese for serving.

STEAMED BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC OIL

Steps:

• Place a steamer basket in a saucepan filled with 1 inch water. Bring to a gentle boil. Add broccoli. Cover, and cook until crisp-tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl.
• In a small saucepan, heat oil over medium-high. Add garlic and lemon zest; season with salt and pepper. Cook until garlic is golden, 1 to 3 minutes. Immediately remove from heat, and drizzle over broccoli.

GARLIC OIL

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring the garlic and oil to a boil, then turn the heat to low, and cook for 5 minutes, until the garlic is lightly browned. Turn off the heat and set aside. The garlic will continue to cook.
• Remove the garlic cloves from the oil and slice them. Place them in a bowl and pour the oil over them.

BROCCOLI SAUTéED IN WINE AND GARLIC (BROCCOLI AL FRASCATI)

Steps:

• 1. In a 10- to 12-inch sauté pan, heat the olive oil with the garlic over medium-high heat until just sizzling. Add the broccoli and cook, tossing frequently and gradually adding the wine to keep the garlic from browning until the stalks are tender 8 to 10 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and zests, and tossing well, serve immediately.

SAUTéED BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC AND CHILE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high. Add the broccoli stems, season with salt and pepper, and cook, undisturbed, until starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the florets, season generously with salt and pepper, and shake into an even layer. Cook, undisturbed, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes and stir until the garlic is fragrant, less than 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium, add 3 tablespoons water, cover, and cook until the broccoli is bright green and fork-tender, 2 to 3 minutes, reducing heat if needed to prevent burning. Season to taste with salt, pepper and red-pepper flakes.

BROCCOLI IN GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut small, uniform-size flowerets from the stalks of broccoli. Peel the stalks and slice them on an angle about half an inch thick.
• Combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, vinegar and sesame oil in a bowl and set aside.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or a skillet. Add the garlic, then the broccoli flowerets and stem pieces, and stir-fry until crisp-tender, three to five minutes. Pour in the reserved sauce mixture, stir-fry briefly, then serve.
