Roasted Broccoli With Garlic and Red Pepper

Submitted by blucoat

"This recipe could not be easier and turns broccoli into an addictive side dish!. Recipe is from Seattle's well-known gastro-pub, "Black Bottle", and was printed in this month's "Bon Appétit Magazine" (January 2009). You can sprinkle it with some Parmesan just before serving."

This has become a family favorite! And we don't like broccoli! Seriously super-easy, super good!

This was cooked perfectly (I was a bit worried, because it was already "beginning to brown" after the first 15 minutes). I will have to make this again in order to judge the seasoning. I served it with Recipe #45497 and the sauce went everywhere and overwhelmed everything else.

I had clipped this recipe from Bon Appetit several months ago and just got around to making it a few nights ago. We loved it and thought it was very flavorful. It was also quick and easy to prepare. I will definitely make this recipe again. I served it with herb-roasted lamb chops.
