Roasted Broccoli With Pumpkin Seeds And Grated Pecorino Recipes

ROASTED TENDERSTEM BROCCOLI (BROCCOLINI)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C. For easy cleanup: line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment paper, if desired.
• Place broccoli on baking sheet. Drizzle oil over the top. Toss until each floret has been lightly coated in oil. Spread out in an even layer across the baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place in the middle of the oven and bake for 15 minutes until the edges have slightly charred.
• Season with additional salt and pepper if desired and serve immediately.

PARMESAN-ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut the broccoli florets from the thick stalks, leaving an inch or two of stalk attached to the florets, discarding the rest of the stalks. Cut the larger pieces through the base of the head with a small knife, pulling the florets apart. You should have about 8 cups of florets. Place the broccoli florets on a sheet pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Toss the garlic on the broccoli and drizzle with 5 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until crisp-tender and the tips of some of the florets are browned.
• Remove the broccoli from the oven and immediately toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, the lemon zest, lemon juice, pine nuts, Parmesan, and basil. Serve hot.

ROASTED BROCCOLI WITH PUMPKIN SEEDS AND GRATED PECORINO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange broccoli and pumpkin seeds in single layers on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Roast, rotating pans once, until golden in spots and just tender, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly on baking sheets, then sprinkle with cheese.
• Divide rice among serving dishes, top with broccoli mixture, and finish with lemon wedges before serving.
