1
Wash and Cut Broccoli
Rinse the broccoli head under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Using a sharp knife, cut the florets from the stem, making sure to keep them in bite-sized pieces. Discard any leaves or tough parts of the stem.
2
Prepare the Garlic
Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely using a knife or a garlic press. Set aside.

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. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
4
Add Broccoli
Add the prepared broccoli florets to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the garlic and oil. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender but still bright green.
5
Season
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the broccoli and toss to combine. Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the top before serving.
