Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 bunches broccolini ends trimmed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic thinly sliced
- 1/4 tsp Kosher salt, plus more to taste
- pinch freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add broccolini and cook until bright green and knife-tender, about 4-5 minutes. Drain and arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. (This can be done up to 8 hours in advance and chilled.) Once cool enough to handle, cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat oil a large frying pan over medium heat. Add red onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook until starting to brown, about 4-5 minutes. Add broccolini and season again with the measured 1/4 tsp salt and pepper. Cook until broccolini is warmed through, about 2 minutes.
