Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccoli

    Wash the broccoli head under cold running water. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets and set aside.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely using a knife or a garlic press.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Broccoli

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.

  2. 4

    Add Broccoli

    Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir to coat them in the garlic and oil. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.

  3. 5

    Season

    Drizzle lemon juice over the broccoli and season with salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional minute.

  4. 6

    Serve

    Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Serve hot as a side dish.
