Ingredients
- 2½ teaspoons Kosher salt, divided
- 2 bunches fresh broccolini, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 lemon, halved
- shaved Parmesan cheese, for garnish
- crushed red pepper, for garnish
Directions
In a large Dutch oven, bring 4 inches water and 2 teaspoons salt to a boil over high heat. Add broccolini; cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process; drain well.
In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, heat oil, garlic, and red pepper over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is light golden brown, about 3 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high. Add Broccolini, lemon halves, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt; cover and cook until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Garnish with Parmesan and red pepper, if desired.
