Ingredients
– 12 oz fresh broccoli florets
– 3 to 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
1-Preheat your broiler to high and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2-Wash and dry the 12 oz fresh broccoli florets, then slice any large ones in half while leaving smaller ones whole for even roasting.
3-In a bowl, toss the broccoli with 3 to 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes until everything is nicely coated.
4-Spread the florets in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure not to crowd them use a large sheet if needed to keep things from steaming instead of broiling.
5-Place under the broiler and cook for about 5-7 minutes, watching closely since broilers can vary, until the edges are charred and the broccoli is tender.
6-Serve it right away for the freshest taste, and feel free to add a squeeze of lemon if you want an extra twist.
