Ingredients
- 2 2 handfuls broccolini
- 2 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1 lemon sliced
- ½ ½ teaspoon chili flakes
- ¼ ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ ½ cup plain greek yogurt
- 2 2 tablespoons Tahini
- 1 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 1 1 clove garlic finely minced
- 1 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Place the broccolini on a rimmed baking sheet then drizzle the oil over the top, concentrating on the florets. Lay the lemon slices on the baking sheet and sprinkle the chili flakes and sea salt over top of everything.
- Roast the broccolini for 15-20 minutes, or until the broccolini florets are crispy.
- While the broccolini is in the oven, prepare the tahini yogurt sauce. In a small bowl mix the yogurt, tahini, maple syrup, garlic, and sea salt. Thin with a little water so it is pourable.
- Put the broccolini on a serving plate. Using tongs, squeeze the lemons over the top then drizzle with the tahini sauce. Top with the roasted broccolini and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
