Great way to prepare broccoli. I usually just cook broccoli and put butter on it, this is a new change of pace that is simple with great taste. Went over very well. Instead of microwaving it, I instead steam cooked it and it turned out just fine.

Great! My husband said it tasted just like a Chinese restaurant.

I meant to say Asian inspired. It is a pet peeve of mine that this site won't let you go back and fix mistakes!

Delicious and easy! Give the broccoli good flavor without changing or overpowering the flavor too much! Great with Asian inpired entrees and rice on the side!
