I love this recipe. I add the broccoli right into the pan until well coated. I toss the broccoli mixture with whole wheat linguini or angel hair pasta. Topped off with grilled chicken and parmesan cheese. Light and delicious.

Great recipe Bergy! I loved the lemon and garlic flavor with the broccoli, perfect! When sauting the garlic I added enough lemon juice to deglaze the pan, the kitchen smelled wonderful. I did use frozen broccoli with about 1/2 cup of water to steam in the microwave. Added everything together and served with Derf's Cracked Pepper Linguine and enjoyed a very good lunch!

I love the natural flavour and crispness of broccoli when you cook it just right, and this recipe brought it out wonderfully! Fantastic recipe, simple, lemony and something I just can't have enough of! I would probably add some more lemon juice to it too, because I like it real tangy. Thank you, Bergy!

Well, I basically never steam or boil broccoli anymore, because roasting it is sooooo much better But I wanted to make this recipe, so adapted it to roasting. It is stupendous. What I did was peel and trim the broccoli (two full stems, not just florets) and slice into reasonable pieces. I then sliced a couple of garlic cloves and put the broccoli and garlic on a half-sheet pan, then drizzled a couple of tablespoons of olive oil over. Tossed it all and roasted at 400 degrees F for 25 minutes...turning and tossing after 15 minutes. After 25 minutes, I took it out of the oven, sprinkled with freshly cut lemon zest and seasoned with sea salt and a bit of pepper. Tossed again and served. Simply wonderful.
