Sauteed Broccoli With Shallots Garlic And Lemon Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

This quick and easy saut of broccoli, shallots, garlic, and lemon is an excellent side dish for almost any meal and is so tasty youll be going back for seconds. The broccoli is steam sauted in less than 5 minutes, so this is a perfect side for busy cooks. Broccoli is one of the cruciferous vegetables, a family known for its heart-healthy, anti-cancer activity. Abundantly rich in vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, broccoli contains ample fiber, vitamins a, c, k, and the b-complex. Keep in mind that microwaving and boiling destroy these heat-sensitive nutrients, while a quick steam saut like this one preserves their vital composition. This is a great accompaniment to a macro bowl, with seafood, perfect roast chicken or sesame crusted tofu. In the variations below, you'll see options for adding sun-dried tomatoes, pine nuts, and even a touch of sweetness with golden raisins.
