Broccoli With Caramelized Onions Pine Nuts Recipes

Steps:

• Add oil to pan and heat over medium heat. Add onion and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally until soft and golden brown. Approximately 15-20 minutes.
• Steam the broccoli until just tender. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the nuts, onion, and pepper. Toss to coat and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a small dry skillet, toast the pine nuts, stirring constantly to brown evenly. Don't burn!
• Chop the garlic fine. Set aside.
• Separate the broccoli into florets. Peel the skinnier stems and cut into cubes (or reserve the stems for cream of broccoli soup).
• In a large pot of rapidly boiling salted water, blanch the broccoli for about 8 minutes, until it is crisp-tender and still bright green.
• Drain thoroughly in a colander.
• In a sauté pan, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic and let it soften for a few minutes. Be careful not to let it burn.
• Then add the broccoli and pine nuts to the pan. Toss carefully to coat everything well with the garlicky oil. Salt and pepper to taste. Turn into a warmed serving bowl and serve at once. Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the broccoli: Preheat oven to 375 F. Prepare the broccoli by cutting away and discarding the bottom of the stalk, then slicing lengthwise into "steak" pieces. Cut the pieces in half, then lengthwise again. Place in a large bowl and toss with salt, pepper, and grapeseed oil. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and roast in the oven, 15 minutes.
• For the vinaigrette: In a small skillet, heat 1/2 tsp grapeseed oil and toast the pine nuts until lightly brown and aromatic, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add the peppercorns. Toss and set aside. In a food processor, blend the remaining grapeseed oil, shallots, ginger, and orange zest. While the motor is running, add the vinegar in a steady stream to combine; then taste to adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper. Scrape mixture into a bowl, and stir in sesame seeds, pine nuts, peppercorns, and scallions. Vinaigrette will be chunky.
• Remove the caramelized broccoli from the oven to a mixing bowl and add the vinaigrette. Toss to coat and serve.
