Broiled Broccoli

This is a pretty simple recipe, that's big on flavour! I usually serve broccoli steamed (often with carrots and cauliflower), but this is an easy way to mix it up. I first came across this recipe as a recommendation by Mario Batali for a pizza topping (pizza crust, fresh tomato sauce, mozza cheese, then broccoli). I find this works as a sidedish by itself. You can serve as is, or even add a little squirt of lemon juice while plating. Either way, it's a definite keeper! Enjoy!
