Ingredients
- 2 bunches broccolini about an inch of the stems cut off
- 2 large garlic cloves thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/6 teaspoon salt
- Hot pepper flakes to taste
Instructions

- Remove broccolini from the pot with tongs, shaking off excess water (a little leftover water is okay!). Place broccolini in a separate bowl.
- Dump out water from your pot and add olive oil, garlic, salt, and hot pepper flakes to taste. Heat garlic for 2 minutes over medium-low heat.
