Broccoli Made Delicious!!

As promised! My new favorite way to make broccoli. So simple, ready in 15 minutes, absolutely delicious!

Simple Garlic Broccoli
In case you haven't noticed, nothing qualifies as "delicious" at our house without the inclusion of garlic.

2 heads Broccoli, cut into florets. Save the stem and cut into 1/4 inch slices.
1/2 cup water
1-2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1-2 cloves Garlic, minced or pressed
1-2 Tbsp Lemon Juice, or the juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt

Put the broccoli into a skillet with the 1/2 cup water. Bring water to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and let steam for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes the broccoli should be bright green in color. Remove the cover and continue to cook until all of the water boils off, stirring occasionally. When all of the water has evaporated, push the broccoli to the outside of the pan. Add the olive oil and garlic to the center of the pan. Cook for 15-30 seconds. Stir the broccoli into the garlic and remove from heat. Sprinkle/squeeze lemon juice over broccoli and season with salt to taste. Enjoy!
