Steamed Vegetable Platter With Lemon Garlic Dressing Recipes

PERFECTLY STEAMED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Add 1 inch of water to a saucepan and bring to a boil.
• Rinse the broccoli. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the stalks.
• Cut the broccoli into bite-size florets and pieces, and place them in a steamer basket.
• Steam until tender-crisp. Start checking after 5 minutes. As soon as a fork can pierce the stalks, the broccoli is done. Even if the rest of the meal is not ready yet, remove the broccoli from the steamer onto a plate. Crisp steamed broccoli is delicious even at room temperature. Warm limp broccoli is not.
• While the broccoli is steaming, in a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Place the broccoli in a bowl. Pour the dressing on top and gently mix. Serve immediately.
