Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Broccoli

Wash the broccoli florets thoroughly under cold water. Cut them into bite-sized pieces if they are large.

2

Heat the Oil

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

3

Sauté Garlic

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

4

Cook the Broccoli

Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir well to coat them in the garlic oil and season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.

5

Sauté Until Tender

Sauté the broccoli for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is bright green and tender-crisp.

6

Finish with Lemon Juice

Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle with lemon juice. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
