Ingredients
1medium head broccoli,about 1 pound
1tbspolive oil
salt and pepper,to taste
Preparation
Rinse the broccoli. Trim off and discard the woody lower part of the stem. Cut the remaining stem off from the head. With a vegetable peeler, peel the outer layers of the stem off and discard them.
Cut the tender centers into coins across the grain, then chop those up into little bits. Shred up the blossom ends of the broccoli.
Set a large skillet over medium-high heat for a minute or less. Add the olive oil; when it shimmers, add the broccoli. Stir it around every minute or so. Season generously with salt.
After 5 minutes of cooking, reduce the heat incrementally so the broccoli does not burn.
Serve hot.
