Wonderful Broccoli has not been a favorite vegetable for me but it us so packed with good stuff I want to like it. I love roasted vegetables so this recipe was a great find for me. I quartered the crowns so kept the florettes in fairly large pieces. At 10 minutes they were still a bit firm but at 12 to 15 minutes they were just right. The roasted flavor was really nice. Next time I am going to try a little truffle salt instead of plain salt to see how it works with the brocolli. I served it with a blackened mahi mahi and it was a nice green side.
You can also add cherry tomatoes halved and toss in to the mixture and bake. It is so good! I have fixed it this way many times before and all love it!!
Delicious! I am eating this right now for dinner and it is fantastic. I added some baby carrots and red pepper flakes to the broccoli and it is fantastic. I've never had broccoli cooked this way but I will definitely be eating this again.
Lovely flavor In addition to florets I added peeled sliced broccoli stems. I roasted it at 425 degrees because I was also roasting something else at the same time. I took the broccoli out of the oven after 7 min and after another 8 min to toss it a bit and look at it. As it was still too crisp (i.e. hard) I roasted it another 12 min and then it was perfect--soft but not mushy and with that caramelized sweetness. I drizzled a bit of lemon over it and it was a huge hit at supper. Eaten in a flash. Delicious!!!! Pros: easy healthy Cons: needs to roast longer than specified
Crisp and Dry After 10 minutes the smallest florets were blackened and after another 2 minutes the bigger florets were also blackened. Some might regard this broccoli as al dente but to our taste it was simply undercooked. My husband added massive amounts of mayonnaise to his portion to make it palatable. Pros: Quick easy Cons: Crunchy underdone
I hadn't tried roasting broccoli before. This was so good not to mention simple.
I love roasting broccoli and this is a simple and delicious side dish. I made a couple of changes that really brought out the roasted flavors. I roasted the broccoli at 425 for 25 minutes instead and when it came out I incorporated toasted pine nuts and grated parmesean cheese (a small amount). Great dish either way- definitely one of my go to dishes that has a ton of flavor!
I love broccoli!! I love roasted vegetables!! I don't know why I never thought of roasting broccoli! So glad that I came across this recipe! So fast so simple so delicious! I have a feeling that I will crave broccoli prepared this way all the time.
Made this for dinner tonight for hubby & I. We both liked it. I added Lemon Pepper seasoning that I buy at Trader Joes. So easy to prepare. I will be making this again.
This recipe was easy and delicious. I slight modified the recipe by roasting the broccoli oil and salt and pepper for 10 mins. I then drizzled oil mixed with garlic (2 T of olive oil 1 minced garlic clove sprinkle of red pepper flakes) to the broccoli. I roasted the broccoli plus garlic oil for 3 more minutes. I squeezed lemon juice over the cooked broccoli. The garlic adds a delicious flavor just make sure not to burn the garlic in the oven! Five stars because it's easy delicious and healthy.
Easy Simple This recipe made a great addition to leftover pasta. It's a great way to get a serving of vegetables. This is a very good basic recipe for roasting broccoli and once you've got it down explore the many different spice combinations. Pros: Quick prep
