- 2 pounds broccoli rinsed and trimmed
- 4 cloves garlic thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 2-3 pinches red pepper flakes to taste
- 1/2 cup dried bread crumbs
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup toasted pine nuts optional
- 1 splash balsamic vinegar
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Cut the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces and the stalks into very thin (1/8-inch) rounds. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine broccoli, garlic, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, bread crumbs, and olive oil. Mix well.
Spread broccoli mixture onto a cookie sheet and place in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a sauté pan to medium heat and toast pine nuts for about 3 minutes.
Remove broccoli from the oven, toss in the cheese and pine nuts, and place mixture in a serving dish. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the broccoli and serve immediately.
