- 01
Chop the broccoli into medium-sized florets (leave a good amount of the stem for a nice shape; see the photo). Thinly slice the green onions .
- 02
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the broccoli florets and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally (the broccoli will lightly brown in parts). Stir in the green onion, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and kosher salt .
- 03
Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more, until crisp and tender but still bright green. Taste and add a few pinches of salt if needed (to make the flavor pop!) and fresh ground pepper. Remove the broccoli to a bowl and serve immediately. Sprinkle with the lemon zest, if using.
