Ingredients
- Salt
- 1 bunch broccolini, washed and trimmed, cut into 2-inch lengths
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 6 anchovy fillets
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 large cloves garlic, chopped
- 3 tablespoons capers, chopped
- 1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 1 carrot, peeled, cut into thin matchsticks
- 2 small zucchini or 1 medium, cut into fat matchsticks
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded, quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
- 1 bunch scallions, cut into 2-inch lengths on the bias
Directions
Bring a couple of inches water in a skillet to a boil, over medium heat. Salt the water and add the broccolini. Cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain, run under cold water and reserve. Return the skillet to the stove top over medium to medium-high heat and add the 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, 4 turns of the pan. When the oil is hot, add the anchovies and stir to melt them into the oil. Stir in the red pepper flakes, the garlic, capers, parsley and all the vegetables including the reserved broccolini. Transfer to a serving dish and serve.

My bff is italian. This is how she makes it. Not quite as healthy, but oh so good. 2 sticks unsalted butter, melted. Add 3 cans of anchoies with capers (pull anchovy fillets out of can and leave the oil add 3-4 cloves of garlic. We use raw cabbage and some type of crusty bread. OH how delicious. Make sure you light some candles and clean up any oil from the anchovy right away, cause if you don't you'll be smelling garlic for days. Its either a love or hate recipe. My girlfriend thinks I might be part italian! Haven't actually tried this recipe, but don't know how you could go wrong. I don't even like anchovies, well maybe.

This will become a staple in my house. I have never tasted anchovies before this and it was awesome. I couldn't find broccolini here in Phoenix. So, I just bought a bag of broccoli and cauliflower. I also added a chopped shallot. The cheese on the veggies after being heated was a great added touch. My dogs went crazy and I had to share some with them. lol Next time I make this I will leave out carrots and use corn as the other writer said. I am not great fan of carrots. I also added some frozen green beans that I had to use before they went bad. This was so easy and a healthy meal alone. I had a big slice of corn bread with it. DELISH!

Made this side dish a few nights ago and I was not disappointed. It had so much flavor and it's healthy! The only things I left out were the capers and scallions. Didn't miss them at all. What a great side dish. I plan on making it again this coming week. Thanks Rachael for another great recipe.
