4 center-cut bacon slices |
1 pound broccolini, trimmed and cut in half crosswise |
2 leeks, halved lengthwise and cut diagonally into 2-inch pieces (about 1 pound) |
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced |
1/4 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan, reserving 2 teaspoons drippings in pan. Crumble bacon; set aside. Add broccolini and leeks to the drippings in pan; sauté 4 minutes. Add oregano, pepper, and garlic, and sauté 3 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients, and cook 30 seconds or until liquid almost evaporates. Sprinkle with the crumbled bacon. |
