Ingredients:
2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest |
1 teaspoon asian sesame oil |
1/3 cup vegetable oil |
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced |
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger |
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
1/8 teaspoon five-spice powder (optional) |
1/2 cup fresh orange juice |
salt and freshly ground pepper |
two 1 1/2-pound heads of broccoli--stalks peeled, heads cut lengthwise into large pieces |
Directions:
1. In a heatproof bowl, combine the orange zest and sesame oil. In a saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over moderate heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the ginger, crushed red pepper and five-spice powder and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the orange juice and boil over moderately high heat until reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Stir the orange juice mixture into the zest and season with salt and pepper.
2. In a saucepan, steam the broccoli until just tender, about 8 minutes.
3. Transfer the steamed broccoli to a warmed platter, spoon the orange-chile oil on top and serve.
4. Make Ahead: The orange-chile oil can be refrigerated for 3 days.
