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.
