Very good! I mixed some limoncello in the butter sauce as well.

    Very nice flavor, easy to prepare. I enjoyed the lemony flavor and the nuts in this, although next time I would toast the nuts first. I used some lovely fresh purple sprouting broccoli in this and the sauce was a nice accompaniment.

    Wow, wow and wow! I had to use a ton of restraint to save some for leftovers as planned. This was really incredible and made broccoli that I usually just like into something I really loved. Amazing. Oh, and I toasted the almonds (no oil, just heated in pan until slightly browned), too, and I think it added something. I'll be making this often!

    We eat a lot of broccoli (at least 2x week) and I am always looking for ways to jazz it up. I usually serve mine steamed, and then dress it with just a drizzle of virgin olive oil and some fresh lemon juice. I really liked the freshness that the lemon zest added and the richness of the butter... but my BF and I were not crazy about the almonds... I think next time I will make this without the nuts... just a personal preference... but the flavor was great! Thanks for sharing!!!
