Broccoli stir-fry
Serves | 4 to 6 |
- 2 large heads broccoli, cleaned and separated into equal-sized florets
- 5 Tbsp grapeseed oil
- 6 large cloves garlic, sliced
- 3 stalks Swiss chard, cleaned and cut into 1-inch ribbons
- 1 red bell pepper, julienned
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes

| Preparation | Place broccoli in a microwave-safe container with ¼ cup water; cover with microwave-safe plastic wrap and heat, 4 minutes. Let stand, 2 minutes. Remove from microwave and set aside.
In a wok or large sauté pan, heat oil over high heat until it begins to smoke. Add garlic; quickly stir until it starts to brown and then transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon. Add microwaved broccoli, Swiss chard, pepper, red pepper flakes, cumin seed and ½ teaspoon salt to wok or pan; toss for even cooking, approximately 3 minutes. Add garlic and mint leaves; toss, 1 minute. Transfer to a warm platter; taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Drizzle lime juice over top and serve hot.
