Steamed Broccoli with Lemon Recipe

Steamed Broccoli with Lemon Recipe

  • 1 pound broccoli crowns
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon O Organics™ Salted Sweet Cream Butter
  • Safeway salt and freshly ground black pepper (optional)
  1. Peel broccoli stems with a small knife or vegetable peeler. Cut broccoli lengthwise into pieces about 2 inches wide. Pour 1/2 inch water into a medium saucepan and add broccoli.
  2. Cover pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer just until broccoli is tender-crisp to the bite, 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Drain broccoli and return to pan. Gently mix in lemon zest and butter until butter melts. Add salt and pepper, if you like. Spoon broccoli into a serving dish.
