Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread the walnuts on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for about 8-10 minutes, until they are fragrant and lightly browned.
- In a small saucepan, heat the honey over medium heat until it becomes thin and runny.
- Remove the walnuts from the oven and immediately drizzle the honey over them, tossing to coat evenly.
- Set aside to cool and harden.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat the peanut oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the broccoli florets and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5-6 minutes, until they start to become tender but still a bit crisp.
3. Add Aromatics:
- Add the minced garlic and sliced chili peppers to the skillet.
- Stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce, stirring well to coat all the ingredients.
- Add the spinach and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the spinach is wilted.
- Drizzle the sesame oil over the mixture and give it a final stir.
- Transfer the chili soy broccoli and spinach mixture to a serving dish.
- Sprinkle the honeyed walnuts on top.
Tips:
- When toasting the walnuts, keep a close eye on them as they can burn quickly. Stir them constantly to ensure even caramelization.
- For an even richer flavor, marinate the broccoli in the soy and oyster sauce mixture for 15 minutes before cooking.
- Adjust the level of heat by controlling the amount of red hot chili peppers you use. If you prefer a milder dish, use only one chili or remove the seeds.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms to make the dish even more colorful and nutritious.
- Make sure to use fresh garlic cloves for the best flavor, and mince them finely to evenly distribute the garlic essence throughout the dish.
