Vegetable Rings on Broccoli Spears
Yield: Makes 4 side-dish servings
Ingredients:
1
small bunch broccoli (about 12 ounces), stalks peeled

1
red bell pepper, sliced into thin rings

3
(1/4-inch-thick) center slices mild white onion

2
tablespoons butter or margarine

1/2
teaspoon wine vinegar

1/2
teaspoon dried rosemary



 
Preparation:
1.
To steam broccoli, place steamer basket in large saucepan; add 1 inch of water. (Water should not touch bottom of basket.) Place spears in steamer. Separate onion slices into rings; place on broccoli. Cover. Bring to a boil over high heat; steam about 8 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender. Add water, as necessary, to prevent pan from boiling dry.

2.
Uncover; place pepper rings on top. Cover; steam briefly until pepper rings brighten in color but still hold their shape. Remove from heat; transfer vegetables with slotted spoon to warm serving dish. Melt butter in small saucepan over medium heat; stir in vinegar and rosemary. Drizzle evenly over vegetables. Serve immediately.
