  • 1 bunch broccoli

Instructions
 

  • Wash the broccoli in a colander. Cut the broccoli florets into bite-size pieces.
  • Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the broccoli, olive oil, and salt to the hot pan. Spread the florets out in the skillet so that they aren’t stacked on top of one another. (Work in batches if necessary.)

  • Cover the pan and continue cooking the broccoli for 2 more minutes.

  • Serve hot and enjoy.
