Ingredients
6 Tbs. olive oil
1 heads of broccoli , cut into 1-1/2- to 2-inch
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 Tbs. freshly grated Parmesan

Place a 9- to 10-inch skillet over medium heat with the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the broccoli and sauté, stirring frequently, until it turns bright green, about 2 min. Season with salt and pepper and reduce the heat to low.

Cook the broccoli for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, lowering the heat at any point if it gets too brown (a crackling sound indicates the heat is too high and that the broccoli may start to burn). Reduce the heat to very low and continue cooking until the broccoli is unevenly browned and tender, another 15 to 20 min. Transfer the broccoli to a warm serving bowl, toss with the grated cheese, salt and pepper to taste and enjoy!
