Skillet-Seared Broccoli

Skillet-Seared Broccoli brings crisp-tender florets with lightly charred edges and a gentle heat from crushed red pepper flakes. A drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt let the broccoli’s clean, green flavor shine. It’s a quick, versatile side for weeknight dinners or to round out a simple lunch.
