This elegant vegetarian side dish elevates simple tenderstem broccoli into a sophisticated accompaniment suitable for a Sunday roast or a festive dinner party. The secret lies in the beurre noisette, or brown butter, which develops a rich, toasted aroma that perfectly complements the earthy sweetness of the brassicas. Combined with the crunch of toasted pecans and the subtle bite of sautéed shallots, it provides a wonderful contrast of textures that will impress any guest.

While this dish feels indulgent, it is remarkably quick to prepare and can be partially made in advance, making it an ideal choice for busy hosts. By blanching the broccoli ahead of time, you ensure it retains its vibrant green colour and perfect bite before the final quick sauté. Serve this alongside roasted roots or a savoury nut roast for a truly balanced and flavourful seasonal meal.

Ingredients for Brocollini with Pecan Brown Butter

2 1/4 to 1.1kg broccolini (about 4 bunches)
6 cucharadas (3/4 de barra) de mantequilla
60g finely chopped shallots (about 2 medium)
1 diente de ajo, picado
60g toasted pecans , coarsely chopped
Sal kosher gruesa

How to make Brocollini with Pecan Brown Butter

Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add broccolini; stir to separate and cook 2 minutes. Drain. Transfer broccolini to paper towels to drain. Cool. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Wrap broccolini in several layers of clean paper towels; enclose in resealable plastic bag and chill.

Melt butter in extra-large skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic, then pecans; sauté until shallots are soft, about 3 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high; stir constantly until butter is browned and pecans are aromatic, about 3 minutes. Add broccolini to skillet and toss gently until heated through, about 7 minutes. Season to taste with coarse salt and pepper. Transfer to platter and serve.
