Broccoli with Garlic Butter and Cashews

Description

A new recipe a neighbor gave us. What a hit with my family. Just the right mixture of garlic and cashews with our favorite side dish, broccoli. And, so very easy to make!! If in a pinch, you could probably use frozen broccoli too, but I haven’t tried.

  • 1 ½ pounds fresh broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
  • ⅓ cup butter
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons white vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ⅓ cup chopped salted cashews

Instructions

  1. Place the broccoli into a large pot with about 1 inch of water in the bottom. Bring to a boil
  2. and cook for 7 minutes
  3. or until tender but still crisp. Drain
  4. and arrange broccoli on a serving platter.
  5. While the broccoli is cooking
  6. melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Mix in the brown sugar
  7. soy sauce
  8. vinegar
  9. pepper and garlic. Bring to a boil
  10. then remove from the heat. Mix in the cashews
