Step 1:
put the stove on medium low
add some olive oil (the pic probably has too much)
add 1 spooful of chopped garlic
add some crushed red pepper

let that get up to a nice easy sizzle. dont let it go crazy, you dont want to burn the garlic.

Step 2:

the frozen broccoli i get can be steamed in the microwave right in the bag. try to get this kind. it makes it very easy.

let the garlic sizzle for the 4-5 minutes that the broccoli is in the microwave.
when the broccoli is done immediately add it to the pan.

Mix it up! get the garlic, oil and crushed red pepper nicely mixed into the broccoli.

Step 4:
your done. put it on a plate and eat it.

this exact recipe works perfectly well for green beans and other vegetables. and i really do eat it everyday. never gets old for me.

Part of a good HSM.
