Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt
4 bunches broccolini (1 1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup good olive oil
11/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon

Steps:

  • In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water and 2 tablespoons salt to a boil. Remove and discard the bottom third of the broccolini stems. If some stems are very thick, cut them in half lengthwise.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper. When the water comes to a full boil, add the broccolini, return to a boil, and cook over high heat for 2 minutes, until the stalks are just tender. Drain well and place in a large bowl. Pour enough dressing over the broccolini to moisten and toss well. Splash with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice, sprinkle with salt, and serve warm or hot.

ROASTED BROCCOLI WITH VINEGAR-MUSTARD GLAZE



Roasted Broccoli With Vinegar-Mustard Glaze image

On its own, roasted broccoli is a treat: caramelized and crisp-tender, with frizzled florets and sweet stems. To prevent overcooking, roast at a high heat and on one side the whole time. Flipping the broccoli to brown on both sides increases the chance that it will dry out or turn to mush before the outsides are as caramelized as you like. To give the broccoli a little pizzazz, this recipe takes inspiration from a classic mustard pan sauce, which makes chicken breasts or steaks sparkle. Toss the broccoli with butter, vinegar and Dijon mustard right out of the oven, and the heat from the sheet pan will meld them into a silky, bright sauce.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 pounds broccoli, cut into 1 1/2- to 2-inch-long florets, stems sliced 1/4-inch thick
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon sherry or red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. On a baking sheet, toss the broccoli with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Arrange in a single layer, cut-sides down, and roast, without flipping, until browned and crisp-tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest broccoli you can find. Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets.
  • Cut the broccoli into bite-sized pieces. This will help it cook evenly and make it easier to eat.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the broccoli. If you do, the broccoli will steam instead of roast and won't get as crispy.
  • Roast the broccoli at a high temperature. This will help it caramelize and get crispy.
  • Toss the broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This will help it to brown and develop flavor.
  • Add some balsamic vinegar to the broccoli after it has roasted. This will add a delicious tangy flavor.
  • Garnish the broccoli with Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley before serving. This will add a finishing touch of flavor and elegance.
