Ingredients:

• 2 bunches broccolini
• 6 cloves peeled garlic, sliced thin
• 1 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• kosher salt
• pinch red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions:

1. Trim about 1 1/2 inches off broccolini stems and discard. Slice the broccolini in half lengthwise.
2. Bring pot of water to a boil. When boiling, add broccolini and cook 2 minutes. Quickly drain and run under cold water to stop it from cooking.
3. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the oil and garlic and cook until golden, about 1 minute. Add the drained broccolini, season with kosher salt to taste and red pepper flakes (optional), and cook 1 minute, or until heated through.
