This is a bit fussier to make than steamed or microwaved broccoli but it sure is worth the little bit of extra effort. Ingredients:
3 lbs broccoli, cut into bite size pieces |
1/2 cup fresh orange juice |
1/4 cup shallot, minced |
5 ounces unsalted butter |
2 tablespoons orange rind, julienned |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook broccoli in boiling salted water until tender but firm (about 5 minutes).
2. Drain, run under cold water and pat dry.
3. Simmer orange juice in saucepan with shallots until juice reduces to 2 tablespoons.
4. Add butter and orange peel.
5. Cook until butter has melted.
6. Add broccoli and cook until heated through.
7. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
