- Meanwhile, clean your broccoli and cut the stem away from the crown. Slice the florets into 2-inch pieces.
- Peel the team and cut crosswise into ½-inch thick slices.
- When the water is boiling, place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket inside the pot.
- Cover the steamer, reduce heat to medium and steam for 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat as soon as you can pierce your broccoli stalk with a fork.

- If you don’t have a steamer, you can still make this recipe using microwave method or boiling the broccoli
- To store steamed broccoli, place it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It'll last for 3-4 days.
