Pan Roasted Broccoli Recipes

EASY 10 MINUTE PAN-ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• In a cast iron skillet or heavy-bottom pan, heat olive oil over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the broccoli by cutting entire head of broccoli in half. Laying the flat side down, cut off each floret from the base of the floret all the way down to the bottom of the stem.
• When the oil is hot, add all the broccoli to the pan, arranging so that as many pieces as possible are touching the bottom of the pan. Season with 1/2 tsp salt plus pepper to taste and allow to cook for 5 minutes, undisturbed.
• After 5 minutes, stir and rearrange the broccoli so that the sides that were down are now facing up. Season again with salt and pepper and cover with a lid. Allow to cook for 3 more minutes.
• Stir before serving. Best when served hot.

CRISPY SHEET-PAN BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Set the racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat it to 425°F.
• Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide the broccoli between the sheets, arranging them in a single layer. Drizzle each sheet of broccoli with ¼ cup oil, then season each with ½ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Roast, stirring once and rotating the sheets halfway through, until the broccoli is crispy and charred in spots, 35 to 40 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if desired.
