Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head broccoli
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup golden raisins
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoons toasted almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and dry the broccoli. Cut it into small, even-sized florets.
Place the broccoli florets on a baking sheet. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over them, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for 18-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred, flipping halfway through.
While the broccoli is roasting, prepare the raisin vinaigrette. In a small bowl, soak the golden raisins in hot water for 5 minutes to plump them. Drain and set aside.
In a blender or small food processor, combine the soaked raisins, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic clove, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of water. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
When the broccoli is done roasting, transfer it to a serving platter.
Drizzle the raisin vinaigrette over the broccoli and sprinkle with toasted almonds for an added crunch.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
