1
Wash the Broccoli
Rinse the head of broccoli under cold water to remove any dirt or pesticides.
2
Cut the Broccoli
Using a sharp knife, cut the broccoli into florets, keeping the stems intact as much as possible.
3
Mince the Garlic
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

4
Heat the Olive Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.
5
Sauté the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
6
Add the Broccoli
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Toss them with the garlic and olive oil to coat evenly.
7
Season the Broccoli
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the broccoli, and continue to sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the broccoli is tender but still bright green.
8
Add Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from the heat and drizzle lemon juice over the sautéed broccoli. Toss to combine.
