Ingredients

  • 1 head broccoli
  • water (fill your pot with 1 inch of water)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Bring one inch of water to a boil in your pot.
  • While you're waiting for your water to boil, use a knife to cut the head of broccoli into florets.
  • Add your steamer basket to the pot and place the broccoli florets on the steamer. Reduce the heat to medium, add lid and steam for 5-6 minutes, for tender crisp broccoli. 

Notes

  • This is a great steamer basket and it's adaptable to many different size pots. I also love the easy to grab handle.
