steamed broccoli

Hot green vegetable

Steamed broccoli is broccoli cooked by exposure to steam rather than boiled in water or roasted.

Steaming preserves more nutrients and produces a bright green color with a tender-crisp texture.

The dish is a staple of health-conscious eating: Just steamed broccoli and grilled chicken for dinner.
