Broccoli is one of the best vegetables to eat with dinner. It is an excellent source of vitamin C and vitamin K, and it also helps our body’s detox system. This side dish is a deliciously different way to showcase this superfood. Roasting the broccoli at a high temperature adds a crunchy crispiness and browns the floret; I refer to this dish as “burnt broccoli.”
Burnt Broccoli
Servings: 4
Ingredients
2 heads of broccoli
6 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons Olive Oil
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF.
- Rinse the broccoli under cool water. Shake and pat dry.
- Cut the end off the head of broccoli and discard.
- Continue to cut broccoli into bite sized pieces. The stem is just as delicious as the floret!
- In a large bowl, toss together the broccoli, olive oil, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
- Lay all the seasoned broccoli out on a baking pan, evenly spaced.
- Sprinkle the freshly minced garlic all over the broccoli, making sure each piece of broccoli has a little bit on it.
- Bake for 30 minutes until just browned on the edges.
Buon Appetito!
