Generally, this dish is a great, flavorful side dish that gets you away from the usual steamed broccoli. Our only issue was that it was a bit dry; perhaps I didn't use enough olive oil.
Blasted Broccoli
(originally from Bon Appetit)
- 1 1/4 lbs (approximately 8 cups) broccoli crowns, cut into florets
- 3 1/2 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- large pinch of dried crushed red pepper
Preheat the oven to 450F.
Toss broccoli and 3 tbsp olive oil in a large bowl to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer to a rimmed baking dish. [I lined mine with foil.] Roast for 15 minutes.
In a small bowl, stir together remaining 1/2 tbsp oil, garlic, and red pepper. Drizzle over broccoli and toss to coat. Roast until broccoli is beginning to brown, approximately 8 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
Mmm, tasty!
