4 garlic cloves (finely chopped)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

On a rimmed baking sheet, spread the broccoli florets in a single layer and sprinkle with the sesame oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper. Stir everything around to coat the broccoli evenly.

Pop the baking sheet in the oven and roast, uncovered, for 15 minutes.

Remove the baking sheet from the oven, stir the broccoli, and scatter the butter slices evenly on the broccoli. Drizzle the soy sauce evenly over the broccoli and butter and roast until lightly browned, about 5 minutes longer.

Stir everything around to make sure there's some butter and soy sauce coating every bite. Devour immediately.
