Pan Steamed Broccoli Recipes

PAN-ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Stir water, salt, and pepper together in small bowl, til salt dissolves.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium high then add the broccoli stems in an even layer.
• Don't stir for about two minutes until they get light browned.
• Add the florets and toss to combine and don't stir for another two minutes, until they just begin to brown.
• Add water spice mixture and cover pan with lid, cooking for two minutes.
• Uncover and cook until desired doneness.
• Note: I eyeballed my broccoli measurements and it worked fine. I did add a little water to mine.

PERFECT STEAMED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Snap the broccoli into medium-sized florets. It's important to make them an even size so they all cook at the same rate. Put the florets into a steamer or colander set over a pan of boiling water. Cover with a lid or tight-fitting foil and steam for 5 mins.
• Meanwhile, place the butter in a small pan and season well. Heat until the butter is foaming. When ready to serve, tip the broccoli into warmed serving dish and drizzle with the butter. Serve straight away.

STEAMED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add broccoli, cover, and steam until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Mix steamed broccoli, bacon, butter, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.

EASY 10 MINUTE PAN-ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• In a cast iron skillet or heavy-bottom pan, heat olive oil over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the broccoli by cutting entire head of broccoli in half. Laying the flat side down, cut off each floret from the base of the floret all the way down to the bottom of the stem.
• When the oil is hot, add all the broccoli to the pan, arranging so that as many pieces as possible are touching the bottom of the pan. Season with 1/2 tsp salt plus pepper to taste and allow to cook for 5 minutes, undisturbed.
• After 5 minutes, stir and rearrange the broccoli so that the sides that were down are now facing up. Season again with salt and pepper and cover with a lid. Allow to cook for 3 more minutes.
• Stir before serving. Best when served hot.

PAN STEAMED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Peel the stalk of the broccoli, remove the florets and cut into 1-inch pieces. Cut the stalk in half crosswise and then slice each half into 1/8-inch thick slices lengthwise. Place the stalk pieces in the bottom of a 2 1/2 to 3-quart saucepan, add the water and salt. Lay the florets on top. Cover, place over high heat and cook for 3 minutes. Decrease the heat to low and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the butter and stir to combine. Serve immediately.
