• 1 large head broccoli
• 3 Tablespoons butter

Directions

1. Wash and cut the broccoli into florets, you can also peel the stems and chop them into smaller pieces or use them in a salad.
2. Using a skillet, just large enough to hold the florets, add 1/4 inch of water and bring to a boil.
3. Reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and simmer for 3 minutes.
4. Remove the cover and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, add the butter and cook 1-3 minutes longer.
