Seasoning vegetables doesn't have to be rocket science, but can be the difference between okay side dishes and fabulous feasts. With a combo of salt, lemon, olive oil, and just the right amount of heat, this Lemon Broccoli and Peas is out of this world.
Place the broccoli in a large skillet with a lid. Add 1 inch water. Bring to a boil, cover, and steam 7 minutes.
Add the peas and steam 3 minutes more.
Drain the water and drizzle on the olive oil and lemon juice.
Season with lemon zest, salt, and pepper, tossing to coat. Serve hot or at room temperature.
