A simple one-pan broccoli recipe I've made three times in the past ten days. Parmesan cheese, tomatoes, orange juice, and oregano deliver a wild ride of big flavor.
Ingredients
1/4 cup / 60 ml freshly squeezed orange juice
1 14- ounce can crushed tomatoes
1 head of broccoli or broccolini, florets and stalks trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese shavings
2 tablespoons toasted sliced almonds
Directions
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat combine the orange juice and tomatoes.
Bring to a boil and stir in the broccoli. Stir in the oregano and red pepper flakes, then cook until the broccoli is just tender and bright green - a couple minutes. Do your best to avoid overcooking the broccoli.
Season with salt and pepper, and transfer to a serving dish. Drizzle with the olive oil, and sprinkle with the cheese and almonds before serving.
