Spicy Orange Broccoli

3 TBSP olive oil
2 cloves minced garlic
1 TBSP minced shallot
peeled rind of 1 orange, chopped
1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
1 large bunch broccoli (cut in florets)
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp sesame oil

Saute the first 5 ingredients, until the garlic and onion have softened.  Add broccoli to the pan and stir for 1 minute.  Add the orange juice, balsamic vinegar, and salt and cover.  Steam for 3 minutes.  Drizzle with the sesame oil and serve warm, or chill and serve cold.  I usually serve this with potato pancakes.
