Broccoli with Kalamata Olives, Garlic and Lemon

Ingredients

  • 1 Lb Of Broccoli Florets, cleaned and trimmed
  • 1-2 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 10-12 Kalamata Olives (Or More If You Want)
  • 1 Clove Of Garlic, minced
  • ½ Tsp Dried Oregano
  • Juice And Zest Of 1 Lemon
  • Sea Salt And Fresh Cracked Pepper To Taste

Preparation

Step 1

In a large pot (one that accommodates your steamer), bring about 2 inches of water to a boil. Place cleaned and trimmed broccoli florets into the steamer basket and cover with a lid. Cook until the broccoli is JUST cooked, about 3-5 minutes. I like my broccoli a bit crisp so cook longer if you want it more tender.

Once the broccoli has cooked, set aside. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the olives, garlic and oregano. Cook, stirring frequently for about 1 minute. Add the lemon juice, lemon zest, steamed broccoli florets and sea salt and pepper to taste. Gently mix the broccoli until well coated. Serve and enjoy.
