Broccoli in red wine


Broccoli in red wine

Recipe by anneearlybird
Calories per serving: 300 - 450 
Servings: Would serve 2 - 3 people depending on size of the broccoli ! Enjoy. 

1 tbs olive oil
1 red onion
1 head of broccoli cut into small florets
1 small glass of red wine
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 tsp of capers
Salt and pepper
About 5 slices of mozzarella (the type used for pizza)
French Compte is also very good

In a large lidded frying pan put the olive oil, spread the chopped onion evenly over the base of the pan. Arrange the broccoli florets (head over stalk) in decreasing circles starting at the edge of the pan and finishing in the middle. Spoon over the capers. Pour in the wine and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Put the lid on the pan, bring to the boil then turn the heat right down and simmer for 15 minutes. Then place the slices of cheese on top of the broccoli and simmer for another 5 minutes.
I would normally serve this on a bed of rice, but it is just as nice without, or you could use quinoa or even try cauliflower rice. Add calories accordingly.
