A microwave recipe: Wash broccoli and discard tough portions of stalk. Split stalks lengthwise to uniform size for more even cooking. For a more tender broccoli, peel stalks with a paring knife before cooking. Arrange broccoli spears with stalks to outside of dish and flowerettes in center. Add water. Cover and cook on full power 6 to 7 minutes. Let stand, covered, three minutes. Just before serving, sprinkle olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper over broccoli. Makes 4 servings.
