Method

Preparation

Prepare the Broccoli

Start by washing the broccoli under cold water to remove any dirt. Cut the broccoli into florets, making sure to keep a bit of the stem attached for better texture.

Mince the Garlic

Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely using a knife or a garlic press.

Cooking

Heat the Olive Oil

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.

Sauté the Garlic

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.

Cook the Broccoli

Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir to coat them in the garlic and oil mixture. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.

Finish with Lemon Juice

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