Roasted Broccoli With Walnuts Food

BROCCOLI WITH PARMESAN AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high. Add broccoli and cook until broccoli begins to brown, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is crisp-tender and garlic begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Add red-pepper flakes, season with salt and pepper, and transfer to a serving bowl. Toss with lemon zest and lemon juice, Parmesan, and walnuts. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED BROCCOLI SALAD WITH BACON DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

• In the meantime, add the bacon to a small skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the fat has rendered and the bacon is almost crispy, about 5 minutes. Add the onion to the skillet and cook until slightly softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the vinegar and sugar and stir until the sugar has dissolved, about 1 minute.
• Add the roasted broccoli to a large bowl and pour the bacon dressing over the top along with the walnuts, tossing to coat. Serve warm or at room temperature.
