Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic, pushed through a garlic press or zested on a Microplane, see Notes
- 1 teaspoon ginger root, zester on a Microplane/zester
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1 - 2 teaspoons sriracha, optional
- kosher salt, to taste
- 16 ounces broccoli, (about one medium head), cut into florets
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil lightly sprayed with nonstick spray, or lined with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a 1 to 2-cup measuring cup, add the oil, garlic, ginger, oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, white pepper, and sriracha (if using). Whisk the ingredients together. Taste for seasoning and add salt and any other ingredients, to taste.
- Place the broccoli in a gallon zip-top bag. Pour half of the sauce over the broccoli, seal the bag and gently shake to evenly coat. Open the bag and pour the remaining half of the sauce, seal the bag and shake again. Adding the sauce in two increments will give better distribution of the sauce.
- Scatter the broccoli in a single layer on the lined baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes. Stir and continue to bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until most of the broccoli is nicely browned.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve very warm.
Notes
If you would prefer to use ground spices in place of the raw garlic and ginger root, use ½ teaspoon each of ground ginger and garlic powder. Of course, you can use more or less for your tastes.
Adding crushed peanuts or cashews on top of the broccoli would be yummy and add a bit of extra texture!
