My DH is threatening to throw away all of my old magazines so I am placing all of the recipes I can find here. This one is from Gourmet. I haven't tried this one yet, because I haven't had the panko bread crumbs. I love broccoli and this sounds like a lovely way to serve it...something out of the ordinary! **NOTE: I made this tonight and OMG is it good! I made my own breadcrumbs and went for it! It turned out GREAT!! The sliced garlic is a crisp little treat.......YUMMY GOODNESS!!!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs broccoli, trimmed and cut into florets
4 garlic cloves, very thinly sliced
1/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs (japanese coarse bread crumbs)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
Directions:
1. Put 1 inch of water in a 5-quart wide heavy pot, then put a steamer basket inside pot and bring water to a boil.
2. Add broccoli and steam, covered until just tender, 8-10 minute.
3. Meanwhile, cook garlic in oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally. Cook until garlic is a pale golden color, about 5 minute
4. Stir in breadcrumbs, pepper, and salt, then increase heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally until crumbs are golden - about 3 minute Remove from heat and stir in zest.
5. Transfer broccoli to crumb mixture in skillet and toss to coat.
