Okie dokie, only thing that can be said about this broccoli recipe is: FAN-FREAKIN'-TAB-U-LOUS! Enough said .....

This recipe has been included in book#246531. This has to be one of the best broccoli recipes I've ever tried. Roasting the broccoli quickly made it tender-crisp, not soggy as it can sometimes get when boiling. And I liked putting the sauce on at the end, since garlic burns so easily, but it came out perfectly when cooked in the sauce. It's a wonderful dish and we all loved it!!

Nice dish. We are lemon lovers, so it wasn't too lemony for us. I roasted the garlic with the broccoli, using just a drizzle of olive oil (and skipped the butter). I would make this again!

I have roasted other vegies, but never broccoli. It gets a nice flavor, but I will cut down on amount of lemon juice next time, or just use some grated lemon zest in the butter. Went well with grilled salmon and wild rice.
