I started using this recipe in 1987, when I began cooking light...it's been a favorite side dish ever since. With its lemon and Parmesan flavors, it once took second-place in a cooking contest. —Alice Nulle of Woodstock, Illinois

i am just making this but don't understand how i could have enough marinade even to "drain". i had to double it just to coat the 2 cups of broccoli!

I bought a teflon pan with small holes in it for my grill, this works well with this broccoli dish/great for fish/shrimp/stir fry on the grill.
