Barefoot Blogger
So, this week’s Barefoot Blogger recipe was Sauteed Broccolini. It was GREAT! My husband and daughter loved it. We served it with honey roasted chicken. So, here is the recipe:
1 bunch broccolini
kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 lemon, zested
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Blanch the broccolini in a large pot of boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Drain immediately and immerse in a bowl of ice water.
Melt the butter in a large saute pan. Add the lemon zest and garlic and stir. Drain the broccolini and add it to the garlic mixture and heat for 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper, and toss well before serving.
Another night we did a version of this recipe but used olive oil which was great too! That night we served it with a basic grilled steak. It was a great warm spring night dinner.
