Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs broccolini, about 2-3 bunches
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced or grated
- ½ lemon, zested
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Pinch red pepper flakes
Instructions
Prep:
- Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking pan with parchment paper (optional but recommended for easy cleanup).
- Wash and trim broccolini so all stems are about the same size.
Season:
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, salt, and red pepper flakes. Once zested, slice the lemon in half.
- Add the broccolini to the large bowl, and toss to coat evenly with the mixture so all the bunches are coated with flavor.
- Spread the broccolini on the lined baking sheet. For added flavor, squeeze half of a lemon over the broccolini.
Roast:
- Bake for 15 minutes for crisp-tender broccolini or a little longer for charred broccolini.
- Remove from the oven and squeeze the remaining lemon juice if desired.
