Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound broccolini, ends trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Place the trimmed broccolini on the prepared baking sheet.
- Drizzle the broccolini with olive oil. Add the minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together directly on the sheet pan until the broccolini is evenly coated.
- Spread the broccolini into a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the stems are tender and the florets show slight charring.
- Remove the pan from the oven. Immediately sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the hot broccolini.
- Drizzle with fresh lemon juice before serving.
Notes
- If your broccolini stalks are very thick, you can blanch them in boiling water for 1 minute before tossing with oil to help them cook evenly.
- For a spicier kick, add 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes with the salt and pepper.
- This recipe works well for sheet pan vegetables when cooking chicken or fish alongside it.
