Broccoli in Soy Garlic Sauce

Tonight Alex did grilled ahi tuna steaks in a soy glaze (came out a bit dry and quite tangy but otherwise tasty... they may have marinated a bit too long or something), and so I boiled some broccoli and paired it with a DELICIOUS sauce that I got off allrecipes.com. The original recipe also included cashews, which I didn't have, but they would have been a delicious addition.

Broccoli in Soy Garlic Sauce

1 crown broccoli, chopped into bite-size pieces
3 tbsp butter
1 clove garlic, minced
1.5 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp white vinegar
1/8 tsp black pepper
Salted cashews (optional)


Pour 1" water into a pot. Add broccoli. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and cook 7 minutes or until broccoli is tender.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. When butter is melted, quickly add remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Let boil for a few seconds, then remove from heat. Toss with broccoli and eat immediately.

SO good.
