I was looking for a unique way to prepare broccoli and decided to give this a try! Florets are roasted after being tossed in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and minced garlic. A squeeze of lemon juice before serving seals the deal.

ROASTED BROCCOLI W LEMON GARLIC & TOASTED PINE NUTS



Roasted Broccoli W Lemon Garlic & Toasted Pine Nuts image

I adopted this recipe when another chef left the site. The text from my original review stated, "I just made this for my lunch. Yum! I had a smaller portion of broccoli, and therefore downsized the recipe. The flavors are awesome together. I used all fresh ingredients (no bottled lemon juice here!). Since I was cooking only for myself, I prepared the lemon garlic butter in a small saute pan and then tossed the broccoli in that pan to coat it. (No need to dirty a serving dish for just me!) I can't wait to prepare this for others. The lemon garlic butter lends this to be a great side for fish...I am thinking grilled salmon would be great." I have since prepared this as a side dish for a multitude of meals. I love the broccoli, lemon, garlic combo.

Time 22m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb broccoli floret
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, grated
1 -2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, toss the broccoli with the oil and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Arrange the florets in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast, turning once, for 12 minutes, or until just tender.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
  • Add the garlic and lemon zest and heat, stirring, for about 1 minute.
  • Let cool slightly and stir in the lemon juice.
  • Place the broccoli in a serving bowl, pour the lemon butter over it and toss to coat.
  • Scatter the toasted pine nuts over the top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellowing or wilted florets.
  • Cut the broccoli into even-sized florets: This will help them cook evenly. If the florets are too large, they may not cook through properly.
  • Toss the broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper: This will help the broccoli to brown and caramelize in the oven.
  • Roast the broccoli at a high temperature: This will help to create those nice charred bits that add flavor. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).
  • Roast the broccoli until it is tender-crisp: You don't want the broccoli to be too soft, or it will lose its texture. About 10-12 minutes in the oven should do it.
  • Make the lemon-garlic butter while the broccoli is roasting: This will give the butter time to infuse with the flavors of the lemon and garlic. Butter should be melted and foamy.
  • Toss the roasted broccoli with the lemon-garlic butter: This will coat the broccoli in a delicious, flavorful sauce.
  • Serve the roasted broccoli immediately: It's best when it's hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Roasted broccoli with lemon-garlic butter is a simple but delicious side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it's also a healthy and flavorful option. The lemon-garlic butter adds a bright and tangy flavor to the broccoli, making it a perfect accompaniment to grilled chicken, fish, or steak. Next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give roasted broccoli with lemon-garlic butter a try. You won't be disappointed!
