Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccoli

    Rinse the broccoli florets under cold water and cut them into uniform pieces for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    Fill a pot with about an inch of water and bring it to a boil. You can add a pinch of salt to the water for flavor.

  3. 3

    Steam the Broccoli

    Once the water is boiling, place the broccoli florets in a steaming basket or colander and set it over the pot. Cover with a lid and steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is bright green and tender but still crisp.

  4. 4

    Season and Serve

    Remove the broccoli from the pot. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then sprinkle with salt. Toss gently to combine before serving.
