Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 cup Desiccated coconut
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Begin by washing the broccoli florets thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Heat the coconut oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the broccoli florets into the skillet. Ensure they are spread out in an even layer to allow for even frying.
Stir-fry the broccoli for 8-10 minutes or until the edges start to brown and the broccoli becomes tender-crisp.
Add the desiccated coconut to the skillet, stirring frequently to toast the coconut lightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Season the broccoli and coconut mixture with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine the seasonings evenly.
Remove from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the fried broccoli and coconut.
Serve immediately to enjoy the crispy texture and vibrant flavors of the Whole30 Fried Broccoli with Desiccated Coconut.
