Easy Steamed Broccoli To Serve With Meatloaf Recipes

EASY STEAMED BROCCOLI TO SERVE WITH MEATLOAF

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over high heat, add about an inch of water and bring to a boil.
• Cut the broccoli head into 2-inch pieces and add to a steamer basket.
• When the water is boiling, place the basket inside the pot.
• Cover the steamer and reduce heat to medium.
• Steam for 5-7 minutes or until you can pierce the broccoli stalk with a fork.
• Serve and enjoy immediately.

BEST STEAMED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Chop the broccoli into florets.
• If using, thinly slice the onion. Place it in a bowl of water while you're making the rest of the recipe, then drain. (This helps to reduce onion breath and remove some of the spicy bite. If you use green onion, skip this step!)
• Place 1 1/2 cups water into a saucepan or pot. If using a steamer basket without a handle, add it to the pot now: the water surface should be right under the basket. Bring the water to a boil.
• Once boiling, add the broccoli (in the steamer basket, if it has a handle). Steam with the lid on 3 to 4 minutes until just tender, testing with a fork to assess whether it's done. We like our broccoli on the crisp side: if you'd like it more tender, cook 1 minute more. Just be careful not to cook much longer or the color will immediately fade and it will be overcooked!
• Carefully remove the broccoli to a bowl. Toss with the olive oil, kosher salt, feta cheese (optional), and drained red onions. Top with freshly ground black pepper.
