Ingredients

Roasted Broccolini

  • 1 lb broccolini tenderstem broccoli, washed and trimmed with the large leaves removed
  • 2 tbsp light olive oil or a neutral oil like sunflower, vegetable, or canola for roasting the broccoli
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Dressing and Toppings

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice and zest from one lemon

Instructions

  • Roast the broccolini. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cleaned and trimmed broccolini with olive oil, salt, and pepper and add it to a baking sheet or roasting tray (optionally covered with baking paper for easier cleanup). Roast the broccolini in the preheated oven until the broccolini is tender and slightly charred (about 15 minutes).
  • Make the dressing. Whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, salt, pepper, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, Dijon mustard, and one tablespoon of grated parmesan.
