Broccolini has become one of my favorite vegetables. It's tender-crisp, slightly sweet, and more delicate than broccoli. And broccolini is good for you. So I like to think that eating lots of this broccolini helps to offset all of the chips and dip that I've been indulging in lately!
Roasting vegetables
Roasting is my favorite way to cook vegetables. It brings out their sweetness, and roasting is SO easy. When I roast veggies, I typically roast extra because they can be used in so many dishes:
- add to fajitas or quesadillas
- add to scrambled eggs, quiche, or frittatas
- puree into a vegetable soup
- add to a rice bowl
5-ingredient side dish
This easy recipe has just five ingredients, but they are packed with flavor.
- broccolini
- olive oil
- garlic
- pistachios
- lemon zest
First, infuse the olive oil with garlic. Then, toss the broccolini with the infused oil. Roast the broccolini at 400℉ for 10-15 minutes or until the desired doneness. I like the broccolini to still have a crisp-tender texture. Transfer the broccolini to a serving platter and top with chopped pistachios and lemon zest.
This dish should serve 2-4 as a side dish, but I can easily eat most of it myself. This broccolini is addicting - the flavor punch of lemon and garlic combined with the crunch of the pistachios. Delicious!
Veggie side dishes can be boring, but this roasted broccolini is anything but boring.
