Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccoli

    Begin by washing the broccoli florets under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Cut the florets into bite-sized pieces if they are large.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and mince the garlic cloves using a knife or a garlic press. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute or until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  2. 4

    Cook the Broccoli

    Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir well to coat them in the oil and garlic. Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the broccoli and continue to sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.

  3. 5

    Finish with Lemon Juice

    Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the cooked broccoli. Toss gently to combine before serving.
