This fast and easy roasted lemon chili broccoli makes a delicious side dish. The lemon juice adds a nice bright flavor to this recipe while the chili and garlic give it depth and intensity
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Asian chili paste such as Sambal Oelek
- 3 to 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 to 4 broccoli crowns sliced into long spears
- 2 long red chili peppers thinly sliced for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place lemon juice, olive oil, chili paste, garlic, and salt in a large bowl and add the broccoli spears.
- Toss to coat the broccoli evenly then transfer to a large nonstick baking sheet.
- Roast the broccoli until the stalks are tender, 17 to 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle slices of red chili peppers on top for garnish.
Notes
- There is a fair amount of spicy heat from the Asian chili paste. If you want less "bite" then reduce the chili paste to 1 to 2 tablespoons of chili paste.
