Large skillet or wok
Stirring Spoon

Measuring cups
Grater
Knife
Cutting board

Ingredients

4 cups Broccoli florets about 12 oz or 340g
½ cup Whole almonds 72g
2 tbsp Avocado oil 30ml
2 cloves Minced garlic about 1 teaspoon or 5g
1 tbsp Fresh ginger, grated 6g
3 tbsp Soy sauce or coconut aminos for gluten-free, 45ml
1 tbsp Sesame oil 15ml
¼ tsp Red pepper flakes optional for heat
¼ tsp Salt or to taste
¼ tsp Black pepper or to taste

Instructions

Start by heating a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the avocado oil to the pan, allowing it to warm up for a minute.
Toss in the whole almonds into the hot oil, stirring frequently. Cook until they are slightly browned and fragrant, which should take about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to burn them.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the almonds, and sauté for another minute until they release their aroma.
Quickly add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.
Pour in the soy sauce (or coconut aminos), sesame oil, and sprinkle with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together to coat the broccoli and almonds evenly with the sauce.
Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld together and the sauce to slightly thicken.
Once everything is well combined and the broccoli is cooked to your desired tenderness, remove from heat.

Notes

For those with nut allergies, sunflower seeds can be a great alternative to almonds.

This dish pairs well with a side of cauliflower rice for a complete keto meal.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
