This easy recipe for Roasted Garlic Broccoli with Parmesan is next level delicious, and sure to fan a broccoli fan out of everyone!
Broccoli is always the go-to veggie for my kiddos. It’s simple to prepare and always entertaining on the plate. We called ours “little trees” when they were younger to promote eating! It always worked and the nickname has stuck in our house.
Let me show you how to take those little trees to a whole new level!
Right now, California is pumping out the fresh, green bunches so you can buy up a truckload for cheap! Steamed, baked in a casserole, or raw, you can’t go wrong with broccoli.
But, clearly, I can’t leave well enough alone….
Let’s Make Roasted Garlic Broccoli:
I roasted mine in a scorching hot oven! So hot in fact that you might think I’ve lost my mind. These high oven temperatures are normally reserved for pizza and chicken. But, hey…. let’s live a little dangerously for a second.
Actually, about 12 minutes….
Broccoli’s BBF? Garlic. 4 EVA.
First, you toss the broccoli florets with a generous amount good olive oil and minced garlic…
Roasting your broccoli:
Spread the florets all out in an even layer on a baking sheet…
Bake for about 12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
The best topping for garlic broccoli? Cheese, obviously.
But the kicker is to top that goodness with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese…
Yah, I said it.
Nutty, salty parmesan….
YUM-O!
