- Black Pepper: 1/2 teaspoon, freshly cracked
- Red Pepper Flakes: 1/4 teaspoon (optional, for heat)

PREPARATION:
Step 1: Prep the Vegetables
- Wash the broccoli and cut it into bite-sized florets.
- Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth or paper towel and slice them evenly.
- Mince the garlic finely.
Step 2: Heat the Pan
- Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat.
- Add the olive oil and let it warm for about 30 seconds.
Step 3: Sauté the Garlic
- Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring continuously. Be careful not to let it brown or burn.
Step 4: Add the Broccoli
- Toss the broccoli into the pan, stirring to coat it in the garlic and oil.
- Let the broccoli cook for about 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally. If needed, add a tablespoon of water to steam the broccoli slightly for a tender finish.
Step 5: Add the Mushrooms
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan with the broccoli. Stir well to combine.
- Sauté for about 5–6 minutes or until the mushrooms release their moisture and turn golden brown.
Step 6: Season the Vegetables

Step 7: Finish and Serve
