Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons slivered almonds

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 4 cups broccoli florets

  • teaspoon crushed red pepper

  • ¼ cup dry white wine

  • ¾ cup Swanson® Chicken Broth

  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Directions

  1. Toast the almonds in a 4-quart saucepot over medium-high heat until lightly browned. Remove the almonds from the pot and set aside.

  2. In the same saucepot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, broccoli and crushed red pepper and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Add the wine and broth to the saucepot and cook for 3 minutes, stirring to scrape up any brown bits from the pot. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 3 minutes or until the broccoli is tender-crisp.

  4. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and cook for 2 minutes or until the broccoli is tender. Stir in the lemon zest and sprinkle with the toasted almonds.
