Lemon Braised Broccoli
Broccoli is a great go-to side dish that brings color and nutrition to the table. But just steaming or roasting it can get a little boring after a while. Our lemon braised broccoli takes it up a notch by sautéing in garlic and spices, and finishing it with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

- 4 wide strips lemon zest plus wedges for serving
- Salt & Pepper

- 1. In large skillet, heat oil over medium high heat.
- 2. Add onion and sauté until golden, about 6 minutes.
- 3. Add garlic, coriander and red pepper, cook about 30 seconds.
- 4. Add broccoli, lemon zest and 2 cups water, boil.
- 5. Reduce heat and cover for about 8 minutes. Salt & pepper to taste.
- 6. Serve with lemon wedges and enjoy.
