GARLIC MUSHROOMS AND BROCCOLI

 

Here’s a simple and delicious Garlic Mushrooms and Broccoli recipe you can whip up quickly:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
• 8 oz (about 2 cups) mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button)
• 3–4 garlic cloves, minced
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Optional: red pepper flakes, lemon juice, or soy sauce for extra flavor

Instructions:

1. Steam or blanch broccoli: Cook the broccoli in boiling water for 2–3 minutes, then drain and set aside (or microwave with a splash of water for 3–4 minutes).

2. Sauté mushrooms: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown (about 5–7 minutes).

3. Add garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

4. Combine with broccoli: Add the cooked broccoli to the skillet. Toss everything together and cook for another 2 minutes.

5. Season: Add salt, pepper, and any extras like a squeeze of lemon, a dash of soy sauce, or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
