Wash the broccoli florets thoroughly and pat them dry.

Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir well to coat them with the oil and garlic.
Pour the soy sauce (or tamari) over the broccoli, then stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the broccoli reaches your desired level of tenderness. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Drizzle the sesame oil over the broccoli and stir in the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Remove from heat and transfer the broccoli to a serving dish.
Garnish with sesame seeds before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy it on its own as a light meal.
