Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams broccoli
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Wash the broccoli and cut it into small, even-sized florets. Peel and thinly slice the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the sliced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned.
Add the broccoli florets to the pan and sprinkle with fresh rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the broccoli evenly with the seasonings.
Pour 2 tablespoons of water into the pan, cover it with a lid, and let the broccoli steam for 5 minutes, or until it is bright green and slightly tender.
Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the edges of the broccoli begin to caramelize.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the broccoli, toss to combine, and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Serve immediately as a side dish alongside your favorite main course.
