This is a recipe for a super-easy side. Toss the broccoli with some salt, pepper, garlic, and olive oil and you are golden (so are they). This would be a great side for stuffed chicken, roast beef, a lot of things. Eat them right off the pan.

Roasted Broccoli

INGREDIENTS

• 3 cups of trimmed broccoli florets (large or medium florets work best)

DIRECTIONS

1. Heat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl toss together the florets, garlic, and olive oil, making sure they are evenly coated.
3. Lay the florets evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with a little more olive oil. Sprinkle the florets with the salt and pepper and give them a little toss on the baking sheet.
4. Roast for 20-25 minutes, until the broccoli browns in some places.
