Spicy Roasted Broccolini With Preserved Lemon Food

ROASTED BROCCOLINI AND LEMON WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Thinly slice half the lemon into rounds and set the other half aside. Toss lemon slices, garlic and broccolini with the olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, making sure everything is evenly coated, especially the broccolini tips so they get fried and crisp.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan and roast until the broccolini is bright green, starting to char and the cheese is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven, squeeze the remaining half of the lemon over the top and serve.

CHARRED SPICY BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Toss 2 large trimmed bunches broccolini with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Spread in a single layer and roast at 475˚ F until charred around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Whisk 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon agave syrup and 1 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce. Drizzle on the broccolini.

BRAISED CHICKEN WITH PRESERVED LEMON

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Cook the rice as the label directs. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add to the skillet, skin-side down, and cook until golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip and cook until just browned on the other side, about 3 more minutes.
• Transfer the chicken to a plate and pour off the excess fat from the skillet. Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the butter; let melt. Add the bell pepper and onion and cook until just softened, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook 1 more minute. Add the wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the chicken broth and preserved lemon slices and bring to a simmer.
• Return the chicken to the skillet, skin-side up. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Place the skillet under the broiler and cook until the chicken skin is crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Fluff the rice and divide among plates. Serve with the chicken, vegetable mixture and sauce from the skillet; top with dill.

LEMON GARLIC BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Heat a medium sauté pan or wok over medium heat.
• Rinse the broccolini under cold water and add to the heated pan or wok (you want to hear a nice sizzle). Put the lid on and allow to cook and steam for a couple of minutes, tossing once or twice so it doesn't burn.
• Take off the lid and drizzle over 1 tablespoon olive oil, place the lid back on and cook the broccolini for a couple of minutes, shaking the pan from time to time to make sure it doesn't burn, until it is bright green and crisp-tender.
• Stir the crushed garlic, lemon zest and a pinch of sea salt into the broccolini, then cover and cook for a further minute.
• Remove the lid, stir in the lemon juice and transfer to a serving plate.

LEMON BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Wash and trim the broccolini and steam for 5 minutes, until it is crisp yet tender. Drain.

ROASTED SPICY BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Trim about 1/4 inch off the bottoms of the broccolini and remove any leaves. Place broccolini into a large resealable plastic bag.
• Combine oil, vinegar, salt, garlic powder, oregano, crushed red pepper, and black pepper in a small bowl. Pour over broccolini and gently toss to coat. Seal bag and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes, turning over halfway through.
• Spread broccolini in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and top with feta cheese.
• Roast for in the preheated oven until tops are browned and stems are crisp-tender, about 15 minutes.
