Roasted Broccoli

Category: Side dish

2 lb fresh broccoli florets, cleaned and separated [approximately 2 large bunches]
3 green onion, sliced, whites only
4 clove garlic, minced
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dry Italian seasoning
1 tsp garlic salt [more or less to your taste]
light sprinkling black pepper or lemon pepper, to taste
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425F. Spritz a standard baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside. Separate the broccoli florets into bite size pieces. Place into a mixing bowl, with the sliced green onion and minced garlic. Pour the olive oil over the broccoli. Toss gently until coated. Add the remaining ingredients. Mix well.

Lay in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast for 20-23 minutes or until crisp tender and the crumbs are golden. Serve immediately. Yield: 6-8 servings
