25 Aug 2021 by Stephen Duncan

Bring this humble, yet nutritious, vegetable to life with a dash of garlic and herbs. Here’s how to prepare a tasty Garlic & Herb Broccoli.


SERVES: 4      READY IN: 15 MINUTES


Ingredients
  • 2 tbsps Butter (salted, at room temperature)
  • 1 tbsp Basil Leaves (very finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Parsley (very finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Chives (very finely chopped) Garlic (clove, minced)
  • 1 Garlic clove (minced)
  • 1/8 tsp Sea Salt
  • 4 cups Broccoli (cut into florets)
Method
  1. In a small mixing bowl combine the butter, herbs, garlic and salt with a fork until well mixed.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over the boiling water and cover with a lid. Let them steam for 3 to 5 minutes, or until tender but crisp.
  3. Transfer the cooked broccoli to a plate or bowl and drain the water from the pot.
  4. Adjust the heat to medium-low and place the pot back on the burner.
  5. Melt the butter in the pot and add the cooked broccoli. Toss to coat the broccoli in the garlic herb butter.
  6. Divide between plates and enjoy!
