How to Make Broccoli With Lemon Garlic Crumbs
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 large head of broccoli cut into florets and cook for 3-4 minutes, until crisp-tender.
- Immediately transfer the broccoli to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and maintain vibrant green color.
- After a few minutes, drain the broccoli and pat it thoroughly dry with paper towels.
- Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the broccoli and sauté for 1 minute, until heated through.
- Transfer the broccoli to a plate and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Add 4 cloves of minced garlic and cook until the butter begins to brown, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs (panko recommended). Cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the zest of 1 lemon and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Spoon the lemon-garlic breadcrumbs over the warm broccoli and serve immediately.
