Oven-Roasted Broccoli Stems with Zesty Sesame Glaze

Ingredients

- 6 broccoli stems, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 3 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prepare the Broccoli Stems: Peel the tough outer layer from the broccoli stems using a vegetable peeler, then slice them into 1/4 inch rounds.

3. Make the Glaze: In a small mixing bowl, combine the sugar, rice wine vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, and minced garlic. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved.

4. Toss and Coat: Place the sliced broccoli stems in a large mixing bowl. Pour the sesame glaze over the stems and toss until evenly coated.

5. Arrange for Roasting: Spread the glazed broccoli stems in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

6. Roast the Broccoli Stems: Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven. Roast for 20 minutes, flipping the stems halfway through, until they are tender and golden brown around the edges.

7. Serve: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Arrange them on a serving platter and serve as a delightful snack.
