Equipment
- 1 baking tray lined with parchment paper
Ingredients
Roasted Broccoli
- 3 bunches broccoli wash and trim
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil drizzle over broccoli
- pinch kosher salt to season broccoli
- few turns cracked black pepper to season broccoli
Spicy Peanut Sauce
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup

- 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 1-2 tablespoons warm water depending on thickness
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar

Toppings
- 1 tablespoon peanuts crushed
- 1-2 tablespoons scallions chopped

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set it aside.
Prep the Broccoli
- Clean and trim your broccoli leaving the stems intact. Slice the broccoli into long strips. Add the broccoli to the prepared baking tray and drizzle it with olive oil, kosher salt and cracked black pepper.
Roast
- Roast for 25-30 minutes or until the broccoli is lightly charred and tender. I like my broccoli slightly firm and crispy, so I roasted mine for 25-ish minutes.
Make the Sauce
- While the broccoli is roasting, combine the spicy peanut sauce. Which includes, creamy peanut butter, maple syrup, sriracha, low sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil and warm water. Mix until well combined.
Add Toppings
- Remove the broccoli from the oven and top it with a drizzle of the spicy peanut sauce. Hit it with sesame seeds, chopped scallions and crushed peanuts. Add a squeeze of fresh lime and serve with extra lime wedges. Enjoy.
