Steam the Broccoli
In a pot, bring about 1 inch of water to a boil. Place a steamer basket over the pot and add the prepared broccoli florets to the basket. Cover with a lid and steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is bright green and tender but still crisp.

Season the Broccoli
Once steamed, carefully remove the broccoli from the steamer basket. Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste. Add lemon juice for a fresh flavor.
