This stir-fried vegetable is a vivid addition to any plate and it comes together quickly. I like it with Wine-And Herb-Braised Pot Roast and Golden Carrot Risotto. From an April 1986 issue of Bon Appetit in the Cooking for Friends section. Ingredients:
1 3/4 lbs broccoli |
1/4 cup unsalted butter (1/2 stick) |
1 red bell pepper, cut julienne |
1/2 cup sliced green onion (including some of green tops) |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Cut off broccoli florets; cut large florets in half lengthwise.
2. Peel stems and slice 1/4-inch thick.
3. Steam broccoli until just crisp-tender, about 4 minutes for florets and 7 minutes for stems.
4. Rinse under cold water, drain and pat dry.
5. Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat.
6. Add bell pepper and saute until softened, about 5 minutes;increase heat to high.
7. Add broccoli, onions, parsley, juice,salt and pepper and toss until heated through.
