How to Make Spicy Broccoli
- Whisk together 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste!), and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Trim the ends off the broccoli head.
- Cut the broccoli lengthwise into florets, keeping the stems intact. Cut larger stems into smaller, bite-sized pieces.
- Steam broccoli florets and stems until crisp-tender, about 5-6 minutes. Alternatively, blanch in boiling water for the same amount of time.
- Drain the broccoli thoroughly and transfer it to a serving bowl.
- Pour the mustard mixture over the broccoli and toss gently until every floret is evenly coated. Serve immediately and enjoy the zesty flavor!
