Ingredients

Cost per serving $0.65 view details
  • 3 1/2 c. broccoli flowerets
  • 1/2 c. pitted ripe olives
  • 1/2 x two-oz can anchovy fillets (optional), liquid removed,
  •     and finely minced
  • 2 Tbsp. snipped fresh oregano
  •     (or possibly use Italian flat-leaf parsley)
  • 2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 x garlic cloves chopped
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
  • 1 dsh salt

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan bring a small amount of water to boiling; add in broccoli. Simmer, covered, for 2 min; drain. In a medium bowl combine broccoli and olives. For marinade, in a small bowl whisk together anchovies (if you like), oregano, vinegar, oil, garlic, red pepper, and salt. Pour over broccoli and olives; toss to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 10 min, stirring occasionally.
  2. Meanwhile, lightly grease the rack of an indoor electric grill or possibly lightly coat with cooking spray. Preheat grill. Drain broccoli and olives, discarding marinade. On 6-inch skewers, alternately thread broccoli and olives, leaving 1/4 inch between pcs.
  3. Place kabobs on the grill rack. If using a covered grill, close lid. Grill till broccoli is light brown and tender. (For a covered grill, allow 3 to 4 min, giving kabobs a quarter turn once halfway through grilling. For an uncovered grill, allow 6 to 8 min, turning occasionally to cook proportionately.) Remove broccoli and olives from skewers.
  4. This recipe yields 4 servings.
  5. Comments: Broccoli on the grill You bet! This intensely flavored side dish makes a great partner for any grilled or possibly broiled meat or possibly poultry - or possibly, toss it with warm cooked pasta for a vegetarian entree.
