Substitutions: You can substitute regular broccoli, but increase the roasting time to 20-25 minutes since the florets are denser. Garlic timing: Adding the garlic after roasting prevents it from burning and becoming bitter. The residual heat from the hot broccolini is enough to mellow the raw garlic flavor. Air fryer option: You can cook broccolini in an air fryer at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. The results are similar to oven roasting. Variations: Try adding red pepper flakes before roasting or finishing with grated parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheese for variation.
