I recently have discovered fiddlehead ferns. I could not find a recipe for them so, I made one up. These are so yummy that I can eat the whole dish in sitting! Great served with fish.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Cook fiddlehead ferns in the boiling water until barely tender, 7 to 10 minutes; drain.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Stir in the prepared fiddlehead ferns, garlic, and the salt and pepper.

Cook and stir until ferns are tinged lightly brown and tender, about 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and sprinkle with lemon juice.
