Broccoli With Orange Sesame Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Cook broccoli according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter. Whisk in cornstarch until smooth. Gradually stir in orange juice; add orange zest. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Drain broccoli; drizzle with sauce.

Steps:

• Grate 1 tsp orange peel from the orange and squeeze 1/4 cup juice.
• Heat the oil over medium high heat in a large skillet until hot.
• Add the broccoli and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add ginger, garlic, and orange peel and cook 1 or 2 minutes longer until the veggies are tender, crisp.
• In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil and orange juice; add to skillet and cook 30 seconds.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Rinse broccoli. Cut off thick stem where it meets slender stalks, and reserve. With sharp paring knife separate stalks into florets, leaving stems about 1 1/2 inches long on each. Cut pieces in two lengthwise and lay flat-side down. Cut each piece lengthwise in two and repeat until you have 3-inch-long carved floret and stem pieces of approximately equal thickness (about 1/2-inch) top to bottom. Peel tough skin from stems, and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch medallions. There should be 12 ounces of broccoli, about 7 cups. Set aside.
• Toast sesame seeds in large nonstick skillet over low heat until golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to small bowl, and set aside.
• Place olive oil and garlic in skillet over low heat. Toast garlic, stirring frequently, until garlic is deep golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add pepper flakes to hot oil, and stir. Transfer to small bowl, and set aside. Toss broccoli, salt and 1/4 cup water in same skillet, cover and set over high heat. Cook until broccoli is tender, shaking pan and stirring once, 4 minutes. Uncover skillet (water should be gone), and toss. Stir in garlic and oil, oyster sauce and orange peel. Transfer to warm serving platter, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
