Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh broccoli florets, cut into bite-size pieces (about 6 ½ cups)
- 1 medium red onion, peeled, sliced
- 1 small red bell pepper, seeded, chopped
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- ½ teaspoon grated lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon dry mustard
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- ½ cup (50 g) parmesan cheese, grated, plus more for garnish
- 2 tablespoons unsalted roasted sunflower seeds
- salt, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place broccoli, red onion, and red pepper onto the lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes, tossing until evenly coated. Arrange in an even layer.
- Roast until the broccoli is bright green and browned in spots, and the red pepper is slightly tender, about 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, dry mustard, kosher salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Whisking continuously, drizzle in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil until the mixture is emulsified, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Transfer the roasted vegetables to a large bowl. Pour in lemon dressing mixture and toss well to coat.
- Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and sunflower seeds before serving. Salt to taste.
