How to Make Asian Broccoli With Peanut Butter
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 large head of broccoli florets and cook for 2-3 minutes, until bright green and crisp-tender.
- Immediately drain the broccoli in a colander and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
- In a blender or food processor, combine 1/4 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup, 1 clove garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1/4 cup water. Blend until completely smooth, adding more water if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Add the cooked broccoli to the peanut sauce and gently toss to coat evenly.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with chopped peanuts, sesame seeds, or red pepper flakes for extra flavor and visual appeal.
