Cook time: 10 minutes
Serves: 4

Healthy, simple, and flavorful.

Ingredients

2 pounds broccoli
3 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper (I enjoy mixed peppercorns and my favorite grinder)
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 teaspoon minced roasted garlic in olive oil

Instructions

1)-Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Trim 1 inch from stems of broccoli. Using a vegetable peeler, peel outer layer of stems; cut diagonally into 1/2-inch slices. Separate florets into bite-size pieces.

2)-In a large bowl, toss florets and stems with olive oil, garlic, and lemon zest, salt, and pepper.

3)-Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; roast, turning broccoli halfway through, until tender, about 15 minutes.
