Ingredients

• 250 grams Broccoli florets

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the vegetables: cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, slice the carrots into thin rounds, slice the red bell pepper into thin strips, and slice the zucchini into semi-circles.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 4

Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Next, add the broccoli florets to the skillet and continue to cook for another 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Add the sliced red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet and mix everything well.

Step 7

Season the vegetables with salt and black pepper, tossing to coat them evenly.

Step 8

Cover the skillet with a lid and let the vegetables steam in their own moisture for about 5 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.

Step 9

Remove the lid and add the lemon juice, stirring well to incorporate the flavors.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the vegetables.

Step 11

Transfer the cooked mixed vegetables to a serving dish and serve warm.
