Broccolini with garlic and red pepper flakes

This is a simple, healthy side dish that takes about 12 minutes total to make. 

12 stalks of broccolini
1 tsp red pepper flakes (more or less depending on the level of spice you like)
1 clove of garlic, minced
3 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper

Boil salted water in a medium saucepan. Add the broccolini and cook until just soft (about 8 minutes).  Drain the water and add the olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes to the saucepan.  Cook for about 3 minutes.  Add the brocollini back into the saucepan and toss with the olive oil to cook.  Add salt and pepper to taste.
