The Best Broccoli of Your Life

I found a blog post online a few days ago claiming to have the best broccoli recipe ever. As an avid broccoli eater, I was instantly intrigued especially because my broccoli tends to be too watery and soggy. I decided to give the recipe a try, pairing it with sauteed shrimp and a small side of whole wheat pasta. The oven-baked broccoli was REALLY easy and it definitely held up to it's reputation.  I simplified the recipe a tad, and just flavored broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, pepper and sliced garlic and baked for 25 minutes. The broccoli had the tiniest amount of char, which really added to the flavor. I made a marinade of olive oil, mustard, chopped basil, chopped garlic, lemon juice and salt and let the shrimp sit in that for about 15 minutes before sautéing for about 5 minutes. I used the leftover shrimp marinade to wet the pasta. It was a really simple, pretty healthy and extremely delicious Friday-night dinner, and my boyfriend loved it!
