How to Make Dijon Broccoli

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and steam until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Do not overcook.
  2. While the broccoli is steaming, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
  3. Stir in the Dijon mustard, heavy cream (or milk), salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce slightly thickens.
  4. Drain the steamed broccoli and add it to the saucepan with the Dijon sauce. Toss gently to coat the broccoli evenly.
  5. Serve immediately as a delicious and easy side dish.
