Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 small package about 12-15 individual spears
  • 2 tbsp ghee butter, or olive oil
  • 1 meyer lemon sliced thin
  • ¼ cup dry vermouth*
  • salt pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat your cast iron on medium heat until warm.
  • Add oil/butter and heat until melted or shimmery, just a few seconds.
  • Toss broccolini in pan on medium high heat until it starts to soften and brown- about 5 minutes.
  • Salt and pepper liberally, add lemon slices- continue sauteeing while occasionally tossing to prevent from burning another 5 minutes.
  • Carefully add vermouth (there will be a large WOOSH of steam when adding liquid to the pan- be safe!) and heat, occasionally tossing vegetables to ensure they dont burn.
  • When vermouth has cooked off, remove from stove and plate.
  • Serve hot and enjoy.

Notes

*sub stock or ginger ale if you don't cook with wine
