Roasted Broccoli

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 15 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

1 head broccoli, cut into florets of about 1 1/2 to 2 inches (about 1 pound florets; 450g)

3 tablespoons (45ml) extra-virgin olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Adjust oven rack to upper position and preheat oven to 500°F (260°C). Place baking sheet on oven rack to preheat.

In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Carefully add broccoli to preheated baking sheet in a single layer. Roast about 20 minutes or until broccoli is tender and deeply browned in spots (for the deepest browning on only one side, do not flip the broccoli during cooking; for more even browning all over, toss and flip broccoli about halfway through roasting). Serve.
