Asian Inspired Broccoli

This will be your go to for all broccoli. Gochujang, Soy, Honey and More. Quick, Easy, and Healthy.

This is the bomb. In a quest to add more anti-inflammatory foods into my diet, I was determined to find new and different ways to prepare broccoli. Here’s what I came up with over the weekend.

Ingredients:

  • Fresh Broccoli (Cut into same size pieces)

  • 2 TAB Sesame Seed Oil

  • 1 Tsp Garlic Powder

  • 1 TAB Soy Sauce

  • 1 TAB Honey

  • 1 TAB Gochujang paste*

*Gochujang is a korean fermented red pepper paste. This recipe calls for 1 TAB but I like heat and spice so we upped the portion size —up to you and your eaters ;) . I found Gochujang in my local supermarket, however if you can’t find this you could always substitute with sriracha or Huy Fong Chili Garlic Sauce.

Instructions:

  • Heat a skillet on high heat for 3 minutes — after warmed add 2 TAB of sesame oil and chopped broccoli

  • Saute for a few minutes

  • Mix garlic powder, honey, soy sauce and Gochujang paste (whisk)

  • Test for readiness and adjust accordingly (that means only you can determine when the broccoli is done, some like it swishy, other al a dente — this is your creation).

  • Serve Immediately

  • Can make it even prettier and add crushed red peppers and toasted sesame seeds.

OPTIONS:

  • Sauce the broccoli and sauce with raw cashews

  • Add Tofu and fry tofu cubes with the broccoli in the hot oiled pan
