Instructions: 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 teaspoon marjoram and 1/2 teaspoon dried basil to the lemon-butter mixture.
