Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccoli

    Wash the broccoli florets under cold running water and cut them into bite-sized pieces if necessary.

  2. 2

    Blanch the Broccoli

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  4. 4

    Combine and Season

    Add the blanched broccoli to the skillet with the garlic butter. Toss to coat the broccoli evenly in the butter and garlic. Season with black pepper and adjust salt if needed.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the buttered broccoli to a serving dish and enjoy while hot.
