Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Heat the oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and sauté for about 5 to 6 minutes, or just until the garlic starts to brown. Add in the broccolini, broth, crushed red pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cover the pan, and let it steam on medium-high heat until the broccolini turns bright green and is tender, about 5 to 6 minutes.
