Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 lb broccolini trimmed
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a large pan over medium high heat.
  • Add the broccolini and cook for 5-6 minutes or until tender and bright green,
  • Stir in the garlic, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Cook for 1-2 more minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Sprinkle with parsley, then serve immediately.

Notes

  1. If some of the broccolini pieces are thicker than others, you can cut the thick ones lengthwise so that everything cooks at the same rate.
  2. You can easily convert this to a vegan recipe by using olive oil instead of butter.
  3. Be sure to add the garlic at the very end, otherwise it could burn.
