Prepare Ingredients
Step 1
Break 1 large head of broccoli into large florets. Slice florets in half and arrange, cut side down, in a dry large cast-iron skillet. Place over medium-high heat and cook, undisturbed, until charred underneath, 10–12 minutes.
Step 2
Remove skillet from heat. Drizzle 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil over, then sprinkle with 1⁄2 tsp. salt. Toss and let broccoli cook in pan’s residual heat until bright green and crisp-tender, 6–8 minutes.
