Roasted Broccoli with Garlic and Chili Flakes
Roasted broccoli with garlic and chili flakes is a grocery-store staple, not a specialty dish, and it's all the better for it. Nocellara del Belice N°11's pepper-driven finish plays well against the chili flakes here.
Ingredients
- 1 large head broccoli, cut into florets
- 3 tablespoons Nocellara del Belice N°11
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- In a large bowl, toss the broccoli florets with Nocellara del Belice N°11, garlic, chili flakes, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the florets in a single layer on a sheet pan, giving them space so they roast instead of steam.
- Roast 15 to 18 minutes, tossing once about halfway through, until the edges are crisp and browned in spots.
- Transfer to a serving plate and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
