Ingredients
  • 10 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 Fresno chiles, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
  • handful cilantro, roughly chopped
  • ¼ recipe Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce
  • salt & pepper
Garlic Chips
  • 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
  1. Add tablespoon olive oil to a large pan or wok and heat over high heat. Once pan is very hot, add broccoli to pan and cook until broccoli is charred in spots and can be pierced with a fork but is still crisp, about 8 minutes.* Season generously with salt and pepper before removing to a large platter or bowl.
  2. Add 1-2 tablespoons water to Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce and whisk until thinned to an easily pourable consistency.
  3. Drizzle peanut sauce over broccoli then top with Fresno chiles, garlic chips, cilantro and chopped peanuts.
Garlic Chips
  1. Add sliced garlic to a small saucepan with olive oil. Add more oil if garlic is not completely covered. Heat over medium (oil will be very bubbly) until garlic is browned, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove garlic chips from oil and and cool on a paper towel.
  2. Allow remaining oil to cool and then refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Use in any recipe calling for olive oil where you might want a garlicky kick.
Notes
*If your pan is not large enough, cook broccoli in 2 batches, adding additional tablespoon olive oil to pan between batches.
