3-Ingredient Garlic Broccoli Stir Fry
This 3-Ingredient Garlic Broccoli Stir Fry is a simple side dish highlighting the fresh flavors of garlic and broccoli. Broccoli florets are cooked briefly in olive oil with garlic and a pinch of salt, then finished with chicken stock to steam and soften the vegetable while developing a flavorful base. The texture is tender without being mushy, and the garlic flavor is gentle but present.
