Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Broccolini
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 1 medium Lemon
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it.
Rinse the broccolini under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Trim any tough ends from the stalks.
Arrange the broccolini in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the broccolini.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Sprinkle the minced garlic over the broccolini.
Zest the lemon, making sure to avoid the white pith. Sprinkle the lemon zest over the broccolini.
Cut the lemon in half and juice it. Set the juice aside for later use.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes over the broccolini.
Use your hands or tongs to gently toss the broccolini so that each piece is coated with oil and seasoning.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the broccolini is tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Remove from the oven and drizzle with the reserved lemon juice before serving.
Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy hot as a side dish.
