    List of Ingredients




    1 lg Bunch of Broccoli
    1 ts Olive Oil
    1 tb Garlic, minced
    1 lg Red Pepper, cut in strips
    1 c Onion, thinly sliced
    1 tb Balsamic Vinegar
    1/4 ts Ground Black Pepper
    1/8 ts Red-Pepper Flakes

    Recipe



    Trim tough ends from the broccoli and pull off any leaves. Cut the stalks in half crosswise, then slice the tops and stalks into 1/2"-wide spears. (You should have about 8 cups).

    Pour enough water into a large, heavy pot or saucepan to reach 1" up the sides. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Arrange the broccoli spears in a large steamer basket and suspend over boiling water. Cover and steam for 4 to six minutes, until broccoli is crisp-tender.

    Remove the basket from the pot and set aside. Discard water and wipe the pot dry.

    Add the oil to the pot and place over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute' for 30 seconds, until just fragrant.

    Add the peppers and onions. Saute 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until limp. Add the vinegar and let bubble about 1 minute, until nearly evaporated.

    Add the broccoli to the pot. Season with black pepper and red-pepper flakes. Toss until heated through. Serve hot immediately or chill as a cold side dish.
