This quick, easy and delicious Italian-style side dish is perfectly cooked. Broccoli is seasoned with olive oil and garlic, and finished with a touch of parmesan.

My version of this classic Italian dish. This is a very interesting recipe. Actually I've tried this already and I was very impressed by its taste. Try this too so that you will experience the goodness of this dish.

The classic German recipe.

The flavor was amazing, the aroma during the cooking filled up our entire house. We used chicken broth instead of beef broth and water, and it made a very tasty base for the soup. A few slices of good bread was all we served with this soup. YUM!
