Ingredients

4 servings
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 ounces pancetta, (sliced ¼-inch-thick and cut crosswise into ¼-inch-wide pieces (about ½ cup))
  • 1½ pounds (about 1 bunch) broccoli, (cut into smaller florets)
  • 8 medium garlic cloves, (thinly sliced)
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt ((more to taste))
  • ¼ teaspoon dried red chile flakes

Steps

  1. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-heat. Add the pancetta and cook until it's translucent and just starting to render its fat, about 2 minutes. Add the broccoli, garlic, salt, and chile flakes; stir to combine.

  2. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook uncovered, stirring every 5 to 10 minutes, until the broccoli is tender and slightly browned, about 45 minutes total. Taste and add more salt, if necessary. Let cool briefly and serve.
