Directions

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil, add 1 teaspoon salt. Reduce heat and add broccolini stalks, simmer until broccolini turns bright green, about 1 minute. Transfer broccolini to a bowl of ice water, drain when cool. Chop broccolini into 1-inch pieces.

  2. Return pot to stove, heat olive oil and red pepper flakes over medium heat. Add broccolini, cook until warmed through. Stir in garlic, cook until fragrant but not brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove pot from heat.

  3. Stir baby greens, vinaigrette, and sea salt into broccolini mixture, toss just until greens are warmed through but not wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
