CopyCat Longhorn Steakhouse Broccoli

Ingredients

4 cups fresh broccoli florets, about 1 large head
2 tablespoons butter, or olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced (or ½ teaspoon garlic powder)
½ teaspoon salt, adjust to taste
¼ teaspoon black pepper, adjust to taste
1 tablespoon lemon juice, optional

Directions

Wash and trim the broccoli into evenly sized bite-sized florets.

Bring water to a boil under a steamer basket, add the broccoli, cover, and steam 5–6 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.

While it steams, melt the butter over low heat and stir in the garlic for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Transfer the broccoli to a bowl, pour over the garlic butter, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
