Description

A quick and nourishing side dish featuring vibrant broccoli and a flavorful garlic sauce, perfect for busy weeknights and cozy family gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb broccoli florets
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
  3. Toss in the broccoli florets and stir-fry for about 5 minutes, until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
  4. Drizzle in the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), and sesame oil. Stir to coat the broccoli evenly.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, letting the broccoli absorb the savory sauce.
  7. Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

Make ahead by prepping garlic and broccoli in advance. Store in the fridge until ready to cook. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
