Step 1

Add the broccoli to a small pan of boiling water. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until just tender then drain completely.
Step 2

Melt the butter in a skillet over a low/medium heat. Crush the garlic and roughly chop the capers. Add to the skillet along with the lemon zest and tear in the anchovy fillets. Cook for a couple minutes until the garlic is tender and the anchovies soften.
Step 3

Add the broccoli to the pan and toss in the butter and seasonings. Cook for a minute or two more until hot through.

Very good! I didn’t have anchovies so used a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce instead. Will make this again.

My Italian grandmother made this when I was a kid, my mom made it and I make it. My mom and I began substotuting anchovy paste for anchovy fillets to avoid the bones. We also toss the broccoli in the buttery sauce and bake it in the oven for 20-30 minutes or so to seal in the flavors, so to speak. Perfect keto veggie recipe!😊

I know this sounds a little odd... anchovies and broccoli? But wow! What a difference it made to broccoli. Once you try it, you’ll be hooked like we are.
