Step 1

If the frozen broccoli is solidly frozen, you can quickly thaw it by running it under cold water in a colander. Drain well.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the thawed broccoli florets to the skillet. Sprinkle with dried oregano, basil, thyme, salt, and pepper.

Step 5

Stir the broccoli occasionally and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and heated through. Adjust cooking time based on desired tenderness.

Step 6

Remove from heat and transfer the broccoli to a serving dish. Optionally, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the broccoli before serving for added flavor.
