Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Place a rack in the top third of your oven and preheat it to 425°F. On a large baking sheet, toss the broccolini with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, ensuring the broccolini is spread evenly across the sheet.
Roasting
- Roast the broccolini in the preheated oven until it begins to soften, around 10 minutes.
- While the broccolini is roasting, toss the sliced Halloumi with paprika, oregano, garlic powder, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium bowl.
- After 10 minutes, move the broccolini to the edges of the baking sheet and create a space for the Halloumi slices. Lay the Halloumi about 1/4 inch apart and return the sheet to the oven.
- Roast until the broccolini is charred and the Halloumi is crispy and brown, approximately an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
Gremolata Preparation
- In a food processor, combine the chives, parsley, smashed garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Pulse until mostly smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil until emulsified. Finally, add the walnuts and pulse until only small chunks remain, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Serving
- Transfer the roasted broccolini and Halloumi to a serving platter. Generously dollop the fresh gremolata over the top.
- Enjoy this delightful dish warm!
Notes
For added flavor, you can incorporate red pepper flakes or lemon slices. Pre-washed broccolini can speed up prep. Toasting the walnuts enhances their flavor.
