Broccoli with Brown Butter, Parmesan and Walnuts
Recipe from Cooking for Two - 2011
Serves 2

2 T unsalted butter
2 T walnuts, coarsely chopped
1/2 bunch broccoli florets, cut into bit size pieces, stalks trimmed
Salt and pepper
2 T grated Parmesan cheese

Microwave butter in a microwave-safe bowl until melted, about 1 minute. Add nuts and continue to microwave until butter is well browned and walnuts are toasted, 2 to 3 minutes longer.

Meanwhile, bring 2 quarts water to boil in large saucepan.  Add broccoli and 2 tsp salt and cook until just tender, about 2 minutes.  Drain broccoli, pat dry with paper towels and transfer to bowl. Toss broccoli with butter-nut mixture and parmesan and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
