Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the broccoli into florets, slice the carrots into thin rounds, and dice the bell peppers into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves to release their flavor.

Cooking

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

  2. 4

    Add the chopped broccoli, sliced carrots, and diced bell peppers to the skillet. Stir well to coat the vegetables in the oil and garlic.

  3. 5

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the vegetables. Stir to combine and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.

  4. 6

    Finish with Lemon Juice

    Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle lemon juice over the cooked vegetables. Toss to combine and serve warm.
