Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 bunch broccoli (about 1 pound)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Wash the broccoli in cold water and pat dry. Peel the stems and cut them into rounds up to where the florets branch off. Break apart the florets.
  • Pour about an inch of water into a skillet or wok and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Put the broccoli florets in a steamer basket and season with salt. Set the steamer basket over the boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, 8 to 10 minutes depending on the size of the florets. Transfer the broccoli to a plate, sprinkle with black pepper and serve with lemon wedges.
