Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 head fresh broccoli, cut into florets
1/4 c butter, melted
1/2 lemon (juice)
1/4 c blanched slivered almonds

Steps:

  • 1. Steam or boil broccoli until tender, approximately 4 to 8 minutes. Drain.
  • 2. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium low heat. Stir in almonds, if desired. I do this because I think they taste better toasted.
  • 3. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice, lemon zest and almonds.
  • 4. Pour over hot broccoli, add some almonds as garnish and serve.
