A simple and quick way to cook broccoli that even picky eaters love. Best part: I don't even use dishes to prepare it (all mixing and cooking happens in the foil). Drizzle with olive oil and additional Parmesan cheese before serving.

OVEN ROASTED BROCCOLI
After oven roasting asparagus, green beans, cauliflower I thought WHY NOT BROCCOLI. The result is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and a great new way for me to enjoy one of my favorite veggies. Hope you like it too. The garlic is smashed and diced to get as much garlic flavor as you can from each clove.

Steps:
- Preheat to the oven to 400°F.
- Mix together the oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that have yellowing or wilted florets.
- Cut the broccoli into evenly sized florets: This will help them cook evenly. If the florets are too large, they may not cook through, and if they are too small, they may overcook.
- Toss the broccoli with olive oil and seasonings: This will help the broccoli roast evenly and develop a delicious flavor. You can use any seasonings you like, but some good options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- Wrap the broccoli tightly in foil: This will help to create a steamy environment that will help the broccoli cook evenly. Make sure to seal the foil packet tightly so that no steam escapes.
- Roast the broccoli at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the broccoli and give it a delicious roasted flavor. The exact roasting time will depend on the size of the broccoli florets, but a good rule of thumb is to roast them for about 20 minutes.
- Check the broccoli for doneness: The broccoli is done when it is tender and slightly browned. You can check for doneness by inserting a fork into the broccoli. If the fork goes in easily, the broccoli is done.
