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
Directions
Step 1
Wash the broccoli and cut it into small, even-sized florets. Peel and thinly slice the garlic cloves.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 3
Once the oil is hot, add the sliced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
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.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
Drizzle the lemon juice over the broccoli, toss to combine, and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Step 8
Serve immediately as a side dish alongside your favorite main course.
