Bacon Roasted Broccoli

From inthekitchenwithkath.com

Serves 2 or 3

1 pound broccoli

2 tablespoons bacon grease

Salt

Pepper

1. Preheat the oven to 425˚.

2. Peel the tough part of the broccoli stalk off and cut the stalk and florets into small pieces. Put the broccoli in a rimmed baking sheet, lined with foil if you wish.

3. Melt the bacon grease in the microwave. (It took about 30 seconds on high in my microwave oven.)

4. Drizzle the melted bacon grease over the broccoli. Toss well to distribute the fat. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.

5. Roast for about 20 minutes, stirring once during the roasting time, until it’s done and starting to get a few browned spots.
