Ingredients
3 broccoli stalks
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 small clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon zest
Pinch crushed red pepper, optional
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
Directions
- Cut broccoli stalks into 1/2-inch chunks and put into a food processor. Pulse until stalks resemble rice.
- Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add garlic and stir for about 1 minute. Increase heat to medium and add broccoli rice. Cook, stirring often, until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn off heat, stir in lemon zest and red pepper if using and season with salt and pepper. Serve topped with Parmesan.
