Health and fertility benefits of Broccolini with Anchovies and Garlic

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system.

Ingredients

Kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds broccolini, washed and trimmed
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, sliced
4 anchovy fillets, preferably Italian anchovies packed in oil
A good pinch of hot pepper flakes

Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water up to a boil, add the broccolini and cook for about 2 minutes; drain well and set aside. In a large skillet, add the oil, garlic, anchovies and hot pepper flakes. Turn the heat to medium and allow everything to sizzle together until the garlic is lightly golden brown and the anchovies have melted, a few minutes. Add the partially-cooked broccolini and toss well in the flavorful oil. Allow everything to cook together until the broccolini has wilted quite a bit but still retains a bit of crunch, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
