Ingredients

  • 12 ounces broccolini
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat air fryer to 380°F.
  2. Rinse broccolini and shake dry. Trim the tips of the broccolini.
  3. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and salt. Toss with broccolini and place in a single layer in the air fryer.
  4. Roast broccolini 6-7 minutes or until tender-crisp.

Notes

  • If cooking meats/chicken in the air fryer, once cooked, use the drippings in the bottom of the air fryer to toss with the veggies instead of oil. It adds lots of flavor and the broccolini can cook while the meat rests.
  •  
  • Broccolini can be replaced with broccoli and will need to cook at 400°F for 5-7 minutes.
  • Ensure the broccolini is dry after rinsing. Water will cause it to steam.
  • Parmesan cheese is a great addition to this recipe.
  • The air fryer works by circulating hot air around the food, so it's important not to overcrowd the basket.
  • Air fryers can vary so check the broccolini 2 minutes early to ensure it doesn't overcook.
