Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 to 5 pounds broccoli
4 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
Good olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
3 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons julienned fresh basil leaves (about 12 leaves)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Cut the broccoli florets from the thick stalks, leaving an inch or two of stalk attached to the florets, discarding the rest of the stalks. Cut the larger pieces through the base of the head with a small knife, pulling the florets apart. You should have about 8 cups of florets. Place the broccoli florets on a sheet pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Toss the garlic on the broccoli and drizzle with 5 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until crisp-tender and the tips of some of the florets are browned.
  • Remove the broccoli from the oven and immediately toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, the lemon zest, lemon juice, pine nuts, Parmesan, and basil. Serve hot.

BROCCOLI RABE, OLIVE AND PARMESAN CALZONE



Broccoli Rabe, Olive and Parmesan Calzone image

A calzone has many of the perks of pizza. Easy and crowd pleasing, it's a good vehicle for using up odds and ends in the fridge. It also has some happy benefits of its own. For one, you can get away with adding a lot more cheese. In fact, it's practically mandatory. You need to stuff enough ricotta and mozzarella into the dough so that it ripples attractively, rising as it bakes. Unlike an apple turnover, which wants to stay flat, a calzone should peak and singe at the top. (True, you could cram the dough full of vegetables and the like, but if you love cheese, calzones are the place to indulge.) Another calzone advantage is the element of surprise. Pizza gives it all up as soon as it lands on the table; serve a calzone to a group and let them anticipate the moment when they find out what's inside.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, pizza and calzones, main course

Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, more as needed
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 bunch broccoli rabe, tough stems removed
Kosher salt, as needed
Black pepper, as needed
All-purpose flour, as needed
1 8-ounce ball pizza dough, homemade or purchased
1 cup fresh ricotta
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
3 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced
2 tablespoons pitted good black olives, thinly sliced
Pinch red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 500 degrees. Lightly oil a baking sheet.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil and 2/3 of the garlic. Cook until fragrant but not brown, about 20 seconds. Add the broccoli rabe and 3 tablespoons water. Cook over medium-high heat for 3 minutes. Reduce heat, cover, and cook until stems are tender, 2 to 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Lightly flour a work surface, and stretch or roll the dough into a 12-inch round. Spoon ricotta on half the dough, leaving a half-inch border. Top with Parmesan, remaining garlic and mozzarella. Mound broccoli rabe over the cheese, and sprinkle with olives and pepper flakes. Brush the edges of the dough with water, and fold dough in half, over filling; pinch the edges of the dough together to seal.
  • Transfer calzone to baking sheet. Brush the top with olive oil. Bake until crust is golden and firm, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.

BROCCOLI, PARMESAN AND LEMON



Broccoli, Parmesan and Lemon image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 heads broccoli (about 3 pounds)
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Trim about 1 inch off the ends of the broccoli stalks and cut the broccoli lengthwise into spears. Arrange the broccoli on a nonstick cookie sheet, drizzle with some olive oil and season with a little bit of salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Transfer to the oven and roast for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the broccoli from the oven and sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top and bake until the cheese melt and forms a crisp shell over the broccoli, about 10 minutes. Lift the broccoli out onto a platter with a spatula and drizzle with fresh lemon.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have open florets, as these are signs of overmaturity.
  • Cut the broccoli into even-sized florets: This will help them cook evenly. You can use a sharp knife or a vegetable chopper to cut the broccoli.
  • Blanch the broccoli before roasting: This will help to preserve its bright green color and prevent it from becoming tough. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the broccoli and immediately transfer it to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Toss the broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting: This will help to evenly coat the broccoli and give it a nice flavor.
  • Roast the broccoli at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the edges of the broccoli and give it a slightly crispy texture.
  • Grate the Parmesan cheese fresh: This will give the broccoli a more intense flavor than pre-grated cheese.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese to the broccoli towards the end of roasting: This will help to prevent the cheese from burning.
  • Serve the broccoli immediately: This is when it is at its best, both in terms of flavor and texture.
