1
Prepare the ingredients
Trim the ends of the tender stem broccoli and rinse it under cold water. Slice the fennel bulb thinly and mince the garlic cloves.
2
Sauté the fennel and garlic
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced fennel and cook for about 5 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
3
Cook the broccoli
Add the tender stem broccoli to the skillet, along with the salt and black pepper. Stir to combine, then cover the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the broccoli is tender but still vibrant green.
4
Finish and serve
Remove the skillet from heat, drizzle with lemon juice, and toss to combine. Serve warm as a delicious side dish.
