Description

Crispy roasted broccoli florets tossed in a creamy, spicy, and sweet Bang Bang sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the seasoned broccoli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender-crisp and slightly charred.
  5. While the broccoli is roasting, prepare the Bang Bang sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and ground ginger until smooth.
  6. Once the broccoli is roasted, transfer it to a clean large bowl. Pour the Bang Bang sauce over the hot broccoli.
  7. Toss gently until all the florets are evenly coated with the sauce.
  8. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, try roasting the broccoli for a few more minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha to your preferred spice level.
  • This dish is best served warm.
