Garlic Butter Broccolini with Toasted Almonds

Here's a great recipe from gatherandfeast.com (a site where you can search scrumptious recipes by ingredients).

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp water

  • 2 bunches broccolini, washed and woody ends removed

  • 2 Tbsp salted butter

  • 2 cloves fresh garlic, finely grated or crushed

  • Zest of 1 lemon

  • 1/4 cup toasted flaked almonds

  • Freshly grated parmesan

  • Salt

  • Freshly cracked black pepper

Directions

  1. Place a large frying pan onto medium to high heat.

  2. Add the water and broccolini, cover with a lid, and allow to steam for a few minutes until the broccolini is vibrant green.

  3. Remove the lid, add the butter and garlic, and sauté on medium heat for a minute or two until the garlic mellows.

  4. Add a generous pinch of salt then stir to combine.

  5. Remove from the heat and add the lemon zest, a little finely grated fresh parmesan, the flaked almonds, and a little freshly cracked black pepper, then stir to combine.

  6. Taste for salt, and add as needed.

  7. Serve hot immediately from the pan or at room temperature as a salad-type side.


Enjoy!
