TERIYAKI BROCCOLI 4 servings; approximate preparation time 15 minutes

1 pound broccoli

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

1 tablespoon brown sugar

2 teaspoons soy sauce

1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel

Pinch hot red pepper flakes

1 teaspoon rice vinegar

3 tablespoons butter or margarine

Lime wedges

1. Cut the broccoli into florets. Peel the stems and cut on the diagonal into 1/4-inch slices.

2. In a small saucepan combine the ginger, brown sugar, soy sauce, grated orange peel, red pepper flakes, rice vinegar and butter. Place over medium-low heat until the butter has melted. Keep warm.

3. Steam the broccoli over boiling water until just tender, about 5-7 minutes. Drain the broccoli, shaking off the excess moisture; place in a bowl. Pour the teriyaki mixture over the broccoli and stir to coat. Squeeze lime over the broccoli and serve.
