Parmesan Roasted Broccoli with Balsamic Drizzle
Serves 8
Ingredients
- 1 pound (16 ounces) broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons lemon olive oil
- Salt
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons good quality balsamic vinegar
- Lemon zest from ½ to 1 lemon, preferably organic
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (omit if sensitive to spice)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper so you don’t end up with cheese stuck to your pan.
- In a large bowl, toss the broccoli with the oil until all of the florets are lightly coated. Arrange them in an even layer on sheet pan, sprinkle salt lightly on top.
- Bake for 15 minutes; remove the pan from the oven. Toss the broccoli with a spatula and arrange it in an even layer across the pan again. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the broccoli; return the pan to the oven. Bake for 10 more minutes, or until the florets are turning deeply golden on the edges and the Parmesan is golden and bubbly.
- Drizzle balsamic lightly over the broccoli and grate lemon zest on top, to taste. Sprinkle with a pinch of red pepper flakes and flaky salt.
