Roasted Broccoli
Description
The recipe starts by trimming broccoli florets from the stalks and tossing them in olive oil with kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper. Spreading the florets in a single layer on a baking sheet allows the heat of a 375°F oven to cook them evenly over 20 to 25 minutes. This roasting process caramelizes certain edges, intensifying the vegetable’s savory notes while keeping the interior tender.
The combination of simple seasoning highlights the broccoli’s freshness and natural sweetness. This method produces a side dish that pairs well with a variety of main courses, adding color, texture, and nutrition to a meal. The roasted broccoli can also be eaten warm or at room temperature.
