Ingredients
- 1 pound Fresh Pre-washed/ Pre-cut Broccoli Or Heads Of Fresh Broccoli, Trimmed, Washed, And Sliced Into Bite-sized Florets
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil, Or Olive Oil Spray
- 1 teaspoon Sea Salt (or Kosher Salt)
- 1/2 teaspoons White Pepper (preferred, But Black Works In A Pinch)
- 1 Tablespoon Truffle Oil (I Use White Truffle Oil)
- 2 Tablespoons Or More To Taste, Fresh Parmesan, Finely Grated (no Powdered Stuff Here If You Can Help It!)
Method
- Steam broccoli in the microwave in its package (if using pre-washed/ pre-cut) or in a sealed container with a tablespoon of water for about 2 minutes or till just crisp-tender. Drain and set aside.
- Set oven to "broil" setting and place rack in the highest part of your oven. Lay steamed broccoli onto a sheet pan in a single layer, turning the pieces to make the dark green leafy tops face up - these are the tastiest parts to be broiled. Evenly drizzle or spray with olive oil, then sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper.
- Place the pan in the oven on the top rack and broil 2 minutes. Check on the vegetables at this point - you want to see most, if not all, of the brocolli tops looking browned and a bit crispy looking (but not black). If it isn't browned enough return to oven and broil 30 more seconds.
- Once out of the oven, toss together, then drizzle with the truffle oil and grated parmesan and then toss again. Taste and adjust salt/ pepper/truffle oil as desired.
- NOTE: I love this best served around a platter of fettucine alfredo or other creamy pasta and roast chicken. YUM!
