Notes
Tips and Substitutions
- Don't Overcook the Veggies: Often times, cooks will either overcook or not season their broccoli enough. Follow these steps precisely for a perfect crisp-tender broccoli and tender mushrooms!
- Add More Vegetables: Feel free to throw in other vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or snap peas for extra color and nutrients.
- Add Extra Flavor: Add more flavor by adding a splash of soy sauce, rice vinegar, parmesan cheese, oyster sauce, sliced green onion, or sesame seeds. Swap the water with chicken broth for extra richness.
- Use Different Mushrooms: Experiment with different varieties of mushrooms such as shiitake mushrooms, portobello, cremini mushrooms, or oyster mushrooms.
- Add Protein: To make this dish a complete meal, consider adding cooked chicken, tofu, or chickpeas.
- Adjust the Heat: If you prefer less heat, reduce the amount of crushed red pepper or omit it entirely.
- Get Creative: Broccolini is a hybrid form of broccoli and can be used in place of broccoli florets. Air Fryer Broccolini has an excellent char and perfect bite-through texture! Add prepared Roasted Garlic in Olive Oil for more garlicky goodness!
