1 head of broccoli, cut into pieces (just the florets)
1 1/2 – 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
1/2 – 1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 cup pecans, pieces and halves

Preheat oven to 375F.

1. Place the broccoli florets on an ungreased sheet pan. Drizzle with EVOO, salt and pepper and toss with your hands until everything is coated. Bake for 10 minutes.

2. At the 10 minute mark, open the oven and sprinkle the florets with 1/4 cup of pecan pieces and halves (not whole). No tossing necessary – you don’t want to disrupt the caramelization process! Bake for another 5 minutes.

3. Serve warm.
