How to Make Broccoli With Garlic And White Wine

Mince 2 cloves of garlic.
In a large sauté pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds), being careful not to burn it.
Add 1 pound of broccoli florets to the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Sauté the broccoli for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the stems are tender-crisp.
If the garlic starts to brown too quickly, add 1/4 cup of dry white wine to the pan to slow the cooking and create a delicious sauce.
Stir in 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (or more, to taste).
Add the zest of 1 lemon.
Remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with extra lemon zest if desired.
