Blasted Broccoli

 Although I normally recommend steaming…this is a different way to cook broccoli.  Save it for a special occasion.

1 large head broccoli      1 clove garlic, minced

1 tbsp melted butter      ½ tsp dried chili flakes

1 tsp sea salt

Preheat oven to 500 degrees.  Trim broccoli into florets, rinse and drain them. 

Toss the broccoli with the butter, salt, garlic, and chili flakes.  Put on a baking sheet and bake for approx. 4 min or to desired doneness.
