Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package frozen broccoli, thawed
1 tablespoon olive oil
0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
salt, to taste

Instructions

Rinse the thawed broccoli thoroughly and pat it completely dry for optimal crispiness.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red pepper flakes and cook for about 1 minute to infuse the oil with flavor. Add the broccoli florets and sauté, stirring occasionally, until they begin to turn crispy and slightly browned, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Season generously with salt to taste before serving.
