Lemon and broccoli/broccolini--how can you go wrong? The lemon zest intensified the flavor. Yum. -
This was great. The only thing I would change is to add some garlic. Thank you. -
Yum! I skipped the lemon rind, otherwise made as written and it turned out great. Thanks! -
I cut this down for two, and it turned out great! The only thing I'd change is the cooking time....I like my broccolini a bit crisp. Loved the lemon zest! Thanks for sharing! Made for PAC Fall 2011. -
Very tasty - I am always looking for new ways to cook veggies and this was great. I think I am going to try it with chili flakes the next time.
