Method
 

How to Make Roasted Broccolini with Parmesan-Pine Nut Pangritata
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This step is crucial to achieving that perfect crispy texture on the broccolini.
  2. Arrange the broccolini on a baking sheet and drizzle it generously with extra virgin olive oil. Season with kosher salt and black or white pepper, then toss to ensure every piece is well-coated.
  3. Roast in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until the broccolini is crisp-tender. You'll want the vibrant green to shine through and the edges to be slightly charred.
  4. Mix the topping by combining pine nuts, grated Parmesan, breadcrumbs, dried oregano, and a splash of olive oil in a bowl. This mixture will add delightful crunch and flavor!
  5. Sprinkle the breadcrumb topping evenly over the roasted broccolini after the initial roasting. Ensure each piece gets its share of that cheesy, nutty goodness.
  6. Return to the oven for an additional 4-5 minutes, roasting until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and have formed a crunchy topping.
  7. Serve hot and garnished with any remaining toasted breadcrumbs for a delightful presentation. Enjoy this vibrant dish with family or friends!
