This garlic butter broccoli is a quick and easy low-carb side dish that transforms simple broccoli into something special. The butter adds richness while the garlic provides aromatic flavor. It’s perfect for keto meal plans and pairs wonderfully with any protein.
Steam or blanch broccoli (optional). If using fresh broccoli, you can quickly steam or blanch it for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp. If using frozen, thaw and pat dry.
Melt the butter. In a pan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Add garlic. Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Cook broccoli. Add the broccoli florets to the pan and sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender-crisp and lightly browned in spots.
Season. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve. Remove from heat and serve immediately while hot.
