(recipe from Bon Appetit magazine)
1 1/4 lbs. broccoli crowns, cut into florets (about 8 cups)
3 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
Large pinch of dried crushed red pepper
Preheat oven to 450 F. Toss broccoli and 3 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Roast 15 minutes. Stir remaining 1/2 Tbsp. oil, garlic, and red pepper in a small bowl. Drizzle garlic mixture over broccoli; toss to coat. Roast until broccoli is beginning to brown, about 8 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
(It took 32 years for me to really like broccoli. Roasting it makes it so good! Tender, but crisp, garlicky and zippy. This says it serves 4 to 6 side servings, but I ate most of it in one sitting. Yum.)
