BURNT BROCCOLI

SIMPLE SIDES: BURNT BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Here's the trick. Here's what's gonna make your broccoli better than your neighbors broccoli. You're gonna blanch the broccoli. Here's how:
• Have a bowl of cold water ready.
• Boil a separate pot of water.
• Throw the broccoli from the bag in the boiling water. 30 seconds, that's all, take it out.
• Put it in the cold water (a bath if you will). Let it cool off as most of us do while bathing.
• Scoop the broccoli out of the cold water bath and place on a sheet tray (cookie tray, whatever you like to call your trays).
• Season it with salt and pepper and your olive oil. I like to do this in a bowl so I know it's fully coated. I know, extra dishes...but it makes a difference. Sorry.
• Put in oven. Bake for 30 minutes or until crispy.
• After, if you want to indulge and try the mojo, pour it over the broccoli and let your taste buds dance. Preferable salsa as that's what we dance in my household.
• Enjoy!! - Traci

ROASTED BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Toss the broccoli florets with the olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Spread them out and then roast, without stirring, until the edges are crispy and the stems are crisp tender, about 20 minutes.
• Serve warm.

OVEN ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut the broccoli florets into bite size pieces. Cut the stalk into 1/8-inch thick, round slices. Place the broccoli into a mixing bowl and toss with the olive oil, garlic, kosher salt and pepper and set aside.
• Spread the panko into a 13 by 9-inch metal cake pan and place into the oven for 2 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove the panko from the oven and add to the bowl with the broccoli mixture. Toss to combine. Return the mixture to the cake pan, place in the oven and roast just until the broccoli is tender, 8 to 10 more minutes. Remove from the oven, toss in the cheese and serve immediately.
