Chances are good that you didn’t like it because it was either so overcooked that it was soggy or it was served raw with no flavour.
This recipe is so simple that a kid can do it and is better than any broccoli side dish at a restaurant. In fact, when I say so simple a kid can do it, my 11 year old son who aspires to own a healthy food-truck made and created this recipe for my lunch one day and it takes only five minutes and five ingredients.
Tasty Sautéed Broccoli
Ingredients 2 cups fresh broccoli florets 1 clove garlic, minced 1 tbsp olive oil 1 tsp sea salt Pinch of red pepper flakes
Directions Cut the broccoli florets into smaller pieces so they cook quickly. Typically each large floret is cut into two to three pieces. In a large sauté pan over medium to medium-high heat, warm the olive oil and then add the broccoli, garlic, sea salt and red pepper flakes. Turning periodically for about five minutes or less. Broccoli should still have a firm texture and be bright green, but be soft enough to enjoy.
