- 2 plum tomatoes coarsely chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 garlic clove minced
Instructions
- Add broccoli florets and 3 tablespoons water to a sauté pan and cover. Cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, covered, until broccoli has softened but is still bright green. Remove broccoli from pan and pour off any water remaining.
