Steps

1. Steam the broccoli florets lightly for 2-3 minutes until just tender, then cool them under cold water to retain crunch. 2. Cube the cantaloupe into bite-sized pieces. 3. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of sea salt to make a simple dressing. 4. Arrange the broccoli and cantaloupe in a serving bowl. 5. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. 6. Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. 7. Drizzle the melted dark chocolate over the salad in thin lines. 8. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately.
