Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
1 bunch broccoli, cut into florets
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Asian-style chili paste (sambal oelek)
3 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Directions
Set oven rack about 6 inches from heat source and preheat broiler. Put a steamer basket in a large saucepan. Add water to just below steamer basket. Bring to a boil. Add broccoli to steamer basket; reduce heat to medium-low. Steam, covered, until crisp-tender, 4 minutes.
When cool enough to handle, spread broccoli on a 10×15-inch rimmed baking sheet. Using the bottom of a sturdy glass, flatten broccoli florets to 1/2 inch thick. Drizzle with vegetable oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss to coat.
Broil until charred around edges, 5 to 7 minutes.
Meanwhile, stir together chili paste, garlic, maple syrup, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Spoon over broccoli. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
