Ingredients

¼ cup water
1 (healthy) Tbsp olive oil
2 large garlic cloves
pinch red pepper flakes
sea salt as desired
grated parmesan optional, as desired
2 (heaping) cups chopped broccoli florets

Instructions

Add the water, oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes to a large pan (my pan measures about ten inches in diameter and 2-3 inches deep. See photos below.
Bring the mix to a boil and add in the broccoli.
Lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pan with a fitted lid.
Allow the broccoli to cook/steam for three minutes.
Turn the heat off and remove the pan from the burner, keeping the lid on.
Let the broccoli sit for another two minutes.
Remove the lid and give the broccoli a stir. Water should be evaporated at this point.
Season to taste and serve immediately.
