Easy Broccoli Side Dish

Serving Size

2-3

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh broccoli florets (or 1 head of broccoli) Or a cauliflower/broccoli mix
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  • Wash and chop fresh broccoli and cauliflower into bite-sized florets. If using frozen, there is no need to chop.
  • Add olive oil and minced garlic in a large pan over medium heat. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
  • Add the broccoli to the pan. Stir well to coat them in the garlic oil.
  • Drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
  • Cover the pan with a lid and let the vegetables cook for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will allow them to soften while still maintaining some crunch.
  • Remove from heat and plate alongside a protein and carbohydrate of your choice. Enjoy!

Notes

No fresh: frozen vegetables can be used
