Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet with olive oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes. Toss in the broccoli and drained white beans, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
  3. Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet, nestling lemon slices throughout, and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, tossing halfway through until the broccoli edges are charred.
  5. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the vegetables in the last 2 minutes of roasting and switch to broil to melt and brown the cheese.
  6. Remove from oven, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top, and serve hot, optionally topping with a poached egg.

Notes

Be gentle when mixing to maintain the integrity of the beans. Watch the cheese while broiling to prevent burning. If there are leftovers, reheat them in a pan with olive oil for the best texture.
