Description

This Garlic Parmesan Roasted Broccoli recipe is a quick and delicious side dish featuring tender roasted broccoli florets kissed with minced garlic, olive oil, and finished with freshly grated Parmesan and a splash of lemon juice. Perfectly roasted at a high temperature to achieve a crisp-tender texture and loaded with bold, fresh flavors.

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 24 ounces broccoli florets

Seasonings & Oil

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Toppings

  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat it with nonstick spray to prevent the broccoli from sticking during roasting.
  2. Prepare Broccoli: Arrange the broccoli florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over them and add the minced garlic. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper according to your taste. Gently toss everything together ensuring the broccoli is evenly coated with the oil and garlic.
  3. Roast the Broccoli: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but still has a nice crispness, and the garlic is fragrant.
  4. Finish and Serve: Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the roasted broccoli with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and drizzle with the freshly squeezed lemon juice. Serve hot to enjoy the full flavors and crisp texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh broccoli florets for the best texture and flavor.
  • You can substitute Parmesan with Pecorino Romano for a sharper taste.
  • To enhance garlic flavor, you can roast whole garlic cloves along with broccoli.
  • This dish pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken or fish for a balanced meal.
  • Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or air fryer to retain crispiness.
