Preparation:
Wash broccoli, and trim tough stems. Cut each stalk of broccoli into several pieces.
Place broccoli into a vegetable steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes until broccoli is tender.
In a small skillet, melt butter, then add lemon juice. Drizzle lemon butter over broccoli, and serve with lemon wedges. Variation: For herbed broccoli, add 1/2 tsp marjoram and 1/2 tsp dried basil to the lemon-butter mixture.
