I don’t know about you, but I get tired of making the same side dishes over and over again to go with my main dish meals. When I make broccoli, more often than not I just make steamed broccoli. Nothing fancy. Maybe a little broccoli with cheese sauce now and then. But this slow cooked broccoli recipe is really quite delicious. It isn’t made in a slow cooker. It’s simply slow cooked on the stove with some really flavorful ingredient additions.

Ingredient Notes:

  • Fresh broccoli will work best. Don’t use frozen!
  • Pancetta can usually be found next to the prosciutto in your market’s deli section. Prosciutto may be used in place of the pancetta, if desired. You can also use bacon!
  • It’s okay to leave out the chile flakes, if you don’t care for heat. Though it’s not really spicy!

✏️ How to Make Slow Cooked Broccoli with Garlic and Pancetta:

*The complete, printable recipe is in the recipe card at the end of this post.

  1. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-heat. Add the pancetta and cook until it’s translucent and just starting to render its fat, about 2 minutes. Add the broccoli, garlic, salt, and chile flakes; stir to combine.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook uncovered, stirring every 5 to 10 minutes, until the broccoli is tender and slightly browned, about 45 minutes total. Taste and add more salt, if necessary. Let cool briefly and serve.

➡️ Recipe Tips:

  • You’ll need a 12-inch skillet to make this recipe.
  • It’s easy to make. Just keep an eye on the skillet and give it a peek once in a while and stir it around while slow cooking on the stove.
  • Pancetta is really the most delicious choice for this recipe. Like bacon, it will render a bit of fat (but not near as much as bacon). And you’ll be cooking the broccoli in that small amount of fat. It imparts great flavor into the broccoli!
