Heat olive oil in large nonstick skillet set over medium heat; cook onion, garlic and chili flakes for 2 to 3 minutes or until beginning to soften. Add broccolini; cook for about 5 minutes or until tender.

Vinaigrette: Whisk together olive oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper until combined. Stir in shallot.
