Ingredients
- 2 bunches baby broccoli
- 3/4 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup pines nuts
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions
- Chop a 1/2 inch off the stems of the baby broccoli. Coat baby broccoli with a 1/4 cup of olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt and a 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper on all sides.
- Roast the baby broccoli for 15 minutes at 425f on the middle oven rack.
- While roasting mix the breadcrumbs, oregano, chili flakes, grated parmesan, and 1/4 cup olive oil together to form the seasoned breadcrumbs.
- Toast the pine nuts on low heat for 5-10 minutes until golden.

- Parchment paper makes an easy cleanup and prevents sticking.
- Pay attention to the pine nuts while toasting. Use low heat and remove once golden.
