Broccoli with Caramelized Shallots
4 servings
Ingredients
2 Tbsp. walnut pieces
1 1/2 tsp. olive oil
1 cup sliced shallots, thinly sliced (4-5 large shallots)
salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 bunch broccoli (1 1/2 lbs.), cut into florets (5 cups)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place walnuts in a pie plate and toast in the oven 5 minutes, or until fragrant. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-low heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring often, to a deep golden brown, about 10 minutes. (Add a tablespoon or two of water if the mixture gets too dry.) Season with salt and pepper; set aside in the skillet.
Meanwhile, cook broccoli in boiling salted water until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain the broccoli and add it to the shallots in the skillet and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the toasted walnuts.
