  Ingredients

  • As Needed cooking spray

• Step 2

  Fill a large bowl with ice and cold water. Boil or steam the broccoli until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes. Once the broccoli is done boiling, immediately transfer it to the ice bath to stop the cooking process, then transfer to a paper towel lined large plate or baking sheet to soak up the excess moisture.
