Ingredients:

1 head of broccoli, cut into florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt, to taste

Pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Lemon zest, for garnish (optional)

Directions:

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.

Add the broccoli florets to the pan and season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Sauté the broccoli for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is tender-crisp and bright green.

Remove the pan from the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the broccoli.

Toss the broccoli to coat it evenly with the lemon juice.

Transfer the broccoli to a serving dish and garnish with lemon zest, if desired.

Serve the Sautéed Lemon Garlic Broccoli hot as a side dish or a light main course.
