Also like to sprinkle with a little (light) bit of freshly shredded/grated Parmesan cheese for a nice twist. Check out the other recipes from this episode that compliment this well:Lemon-Herb Butter-Basted Chicken, Lemon Chicken Soup, Lemon Pudding Brulee with Blueberries, and a nice Lemon Cream Martini. YUMMY. ;). Ingredients:
12 ounces broccoli florets |
2 teaspoons lemon zest |
1 teaspoon garlic, minced |
1 tablespoon lemon olive oil (suggested brand- o olive oil) |
1 tablespoon water |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
three-cheese blend, for garnish (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Add broccoli florets, lemon zest, minced garlic, lemon olive oil, and 1 tablespoon water to a microwave-safe bowl.
2. Stir to coat completely.
3. Cover bowl with plastic and microwave on high for 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Check for tenderness; cook 1 more minute if needed.
5. Sprinkle lemon juice over broccoli and toss to coat.
6. Season to taste with salt and black pepper (add a light sprinkle of parmesan cheese (three cheese blend is my preference) if desired).
7. Serve immediately.
8. Enjoy! ;).
