  • Serves:  4
  • Prep Time:  10 min
  • Cook Time:  15 min

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces Bimi® Baby Broccoli, trimmed
  • 3 garlic cloves, (2 very thinly sliced, 1 smashed)
  • 1 lemon peel
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds
  • 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups 2% or 4% cottage cheese
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, (from 1 lemon)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, roughly chopped

Method

  1. Make the lemon-garlic crisp. Preheat the air fryer to 320°F. In a small bowl, combine the sliced garlic, lemon peel, almonds, and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss to coat. Transfer to the basket of the air fryer and spread out in an even layer. Cook until golden, about 3 minutes. Toss and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until crisped. Let cool slightly, then roughly chop.
  2. In a food processor, combine the cottage cheese, smashed garlic, ½ teaspoon of the salt, onion powder, garlic powder, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice. Blend until smooth. 
  3. Cook the Bimi® Baby Broccoli. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F. In a large bowl, combine the Bimi® Baby Broccoli, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt until coated. Arrange in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook until tender and bright green, about 5 minutes.
  4. Spread the cottage cheese mixture on a large plate. Arrange the baby broccoli over top and sprinkle with the lemon-garlic crisp and fresh dill.
