I do LOVE broccoli - how 'bout you??
(yields 4 servings)
1 head of broccoli (stem and florets attached, about 2 cups)
2 T. EVOO
6 T. grated pecorino or Parmesan cheese
1/2-1 t. dried red chile flakes (optional*) or smoked paprika*
1 t. dried oregano
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Coarse* kosher* salt and freshly ground pepper
Steam the broccoli head whole, (or speed the process along by breaking or cutting into bite sized pieces) until you can easily insert a knife into the center of the head in the thickest part of the stem, about 20 mins. or a fork into the larger florets (5-6 mins.). Preheat the broiler. Drain the broccoli and place it in a baking dish. Drizzle it with the oil and sprinkle with cheese, chile flakes, and oregano. Broil until the cheese is golden brown, 2-3 mins. Squeeze some lemon juice onto the broccoli and season with S&P to taste.
