Simple Broccolini Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Broccoli Side Dish Recipes. (Simple Broccolini Recipe). This quick broccolini dish is delicious, good for you, and full of garlicky, lemony flavor. Broccolini is more tender than broccoli and has a milder flavor. I love the mix of textures; the crunchy stems and the softer florets that soak up sauce are a great combination.
