Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh broccoli florets

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon lemon juice

4 slices of rustic bread (such as sourdough or ciabatta)

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the broccoli: In a large bowl, combine the broccoli florets, melted butter, minced garlic, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Toss until the broccoli is well-coated with the garlic butter mixture.

      Roast the broccoli: Spread the broccoli mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and slightly crispy around the edges.

        Toast the bread: While the broccoli is roasting, place the slices of rustic bread on another baking sheet. Drizzle or spread a little olive oil on each slice. Toast them in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, until they are golden and crispy.

          Combine and assemble: Once the broccoli is roasted, remove it from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice. Place the toasted bread on a serving platter and pile the roasted garlic butter broccoli on top of each slice.

            Finish with cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese generously over the broccoli on each toast.

              Garnish and serve: Top with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy!
