Roasted Chile-Garlic Broccoli

So D made this. It was really good.  Spicy.  I think I ate it in 10 seconds.  He cut back on the salt because we didn't have 6 Cups of broccoli.  We also didn't have any left overs.

We had with Maple Mustard Chicken.  It didn't really go together, but that is ok. Definitely added to our good sides.
