Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large head of broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
- Place the broccoli florets in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
- Add the minced garlic, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Toss again until the seasonings distribute over the broccoli.
- Spread the seasoned broccoli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to promote crisping.
- Roast for 15 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the hot broccoli.
- Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 3 to 5 minutes, or until the edges of the broccoli are slightly charred and crispy, and the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
Notes
- For extra crispy edges, ensure the broccoli florets are dry before tossing them with oil.
- If you prefer a brighter flavor, add 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice after roasting.
- This recipe is a great healthy vegetable side dish for busy schedules.
