A delightful twist on a classic pan-roasted broccoli recipe, enhanced with garlic and lemon for a burst of flavor.
Prepare the broccoli by cutting it into florets and slicing the stems into thin pieces.
Cutting the stems thinly ensures even cooking and prevents them from being undercooked.
In a small bowl, mix the salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
Mixing the seasonings beforehand ensures even distribution.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Ensure the oil is hot enough to sear the broccoli for a nice caramelized flavor.
Add the broccoli stems to the skillet in a single layer and cook without stirring for 2 minutes.
Letting the stems cook undisturbed helps them develop a golden-brown crust.
Add the broccoli florets and toss to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes without stirring.
Tossing the florets ensures they are evenly coated with oil and seasonings.
Sprinkle the garlic mixture over the broccoli and toss to coat evenly. Cook for 1 more minute.
Adding the garlic at this stage prevents it from burning and becoming bitter.
Squeeze the lemon juice over the broccoli, toss, and serve immediately.
Adding lemon juice at the end brightens the flavor of the dish.
