Grab some garlic, dried oregano and olive oil from your pantry, and you’ve got the seasonings for a bold-flavored broccoli dish that can be made in under 15 minutes. It makes a fine accompaniment to a wide array of main items like grilled chicken, roasted pork, or even sandwiches. Streamline your prep and mince the garlic and slice the red peppers while the broccoli steams. You can make this speedy side, even quicker by using a 12-ounce package of steam-in-the-bag fresh florets instead of cutting up a whole head of broccoli yourself. For a Greek-inspired variation, substitute crumbled feta or goat cheese for the shredded Cheddar.
