Sauteed Broccoli – Best Ever!

by on Jun.29, 2011, under To The Table

This was bit of an experiment based on other quick recipes that I like. I was in a hurry to get dinner for the kids so I didn’t want to spend a lot of time. Kevin had recently brought in some of the thin spears of broccoli that he had picked, not the full heads. This worked out great! And everyone love it.

Step 1
Wash and rinse the broccoli (no need to remove the small leaves). If you can, use the small spears.

Step 2
Add some coconut oil to a skillet on medium heat. Once the oil has melted add the broccoli and put a lid on the skillet.

Step 3
After about 5 minutes or so open the pan and stir the broccoli so it doesn’t get burned on one side.

Step 4
Continue to cook and stir as needed until the broccoli is tender. Add some course salt, fresh ground pepper and serve.

We found this to be very addicting. For the small batch that I made here it took about 15 minutes or so from start to finish. You can use this as a stand alone side dish or add it to pasta or fettuccine.

Enjoy!
