Quick and easy broccoli

Did I mention easy? You need:

A head of broccoli
Around 4-5 garlic cloves
A tablespoon or two of olive oil
Pepperoncini
Chicken broth
Salt to taste

1. Steam the broccoli for maybe 3-5 minutes tops.
2. Dump the water, transfer the broccoli to a bowl (temporarily)
3. Saute garlic in the olive oil. Instead of chopping the garlic, I just sqashed them with a knife and browned them in the pan. Toast the pepperoncini in pan and add the broccoli back in.
4. Cover the pot and let the broccoli cook for a few minutes. You can add a little chicken broth so that the garlic and broccoli doesn't burn. Cook until broccoli's done.
