Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns with yellowing or wilted florets.
  • Cut the broccoli into uniform florets: This will help them cook evenly. Cut the florets about 1-2 inches in size.
  • Blanch the broccoli: Blanching helps preserve the broccoli's bright green color and crisp texture. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately transfer the broccoli to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Make the breadcrumb coating: In a shallow dish, combine the bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Coat the broccoli florets in the breadcrumb mixture: Dredge the blanched broccoli florets in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Place the coated broccoli florets on a baking sheet.
  • Bake the broccoli: Bake the broccoli florets in a preheated oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, or until the breadcrumb coating is golden brown and the broccoli is heated through.
  • Serve immediately: Garlicky breadcrumb-coated broccoli is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Garlicky breadcrumb-coated broccoli is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to add some extra vegetables to your meal, and the breadcrumb coating makes it extra crispy and flavorful. With its simple ingredients and quick preparation time, this recipe is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
