  • Total Time: 20 mins
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms (button or cremini)
  • 2 tbsp butter (or olive oil for dairy-free)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt & black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Optional: 1 tbsp soy sauce or splash of lemon

Instructions

  1. Cook the Broccoli: Steam or blanch broccoli for 2–3 minutes until bright green but still crisp. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Mushrooms: In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and sauté until golden and tender.
  3. Add Garlic & Broccoli: Stir in the minced garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant. Add broccoli and toss everything together.
  4. Season & Glaze: Add onion powder and adjust salt and pepper to taste. Optional: add soy sauce for umami or lemon for brightness.
  5. Serve Hot: Enjoy as a side or serve over rice, quinoa, or with grilled protein.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
  • Use a mix of mushrooms for richer taste.
  • Can be made dairy-free using olive oil instead of butter.
