Instructions

  • Start to prepare your rice, quinoa, or noodles if serving with this dish.

  • In a cast iron skillet over medium heat, add in 2 tablespoon of olive oil. Add in minced garlic and saute for 1 minute. Careful not to burn.
  • Add in the broccoli and sauce and combine. Turn heat down to medium low.
  • Cover and Cook for 8 minutes. Stirring occasionally so broccoli doesn't stick to the bottom.  *If needed turn down heat a bit or add a splash of vegetable broth. 
  • Add in the chopped cashews and chickpeas and stir together. 
  • Cover and cook for an additional 3-7 minutes. *If you prefer a bit of a crunch with your broccoli cook for shorter, or softer broccoli cook longer.
