Wash and cut broccoli. Steam in a microwave for about 3-5 minutes, or cook in boiling water for about 10 minutes until barely tender and still brightly colored. Finely chop the garlic. Place olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add salt, then garlic to hot oil. Sauté until garlic starts to soften. Add the water, then pepper. Lower heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Place cooked broccoli in a bowl and pour the garlic mixture over it. Mix gently.
