Garlic Broccoli

Garlic Broccoli

Occasionally, I’ll buy a ready marinated meat at the grocery store for a quick and easy dinner. As an accompaniment, we often have these three dishes: Garlic Broccoli, Herb Peas and Carrots, and Chili Brussels Sprouts. These go-to dishes are very easy to make and my husband loves them all. They go with everything from steaks to roast chicken or baked fish.

Garlic Broccoli
1 head broccoli, cut into small florets
1 tbsp butter
Garlic powder to taste
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste

Cut the broccoli into small florets and wash well. Discard the stalk. Steam the broccoli in a microwave steamer, till done. In a frying pan, melt the butter. Add the steamed broccoli, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and toss so that it’s well mixed. Keep on a high flame for a few minutes, so that the garlic powder has a chance to cook. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
