Parmesan-Roasted Broccoli
Parmesan-Roasted Broccoli involves tossing broccoli florets with olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and kosher salt, then roasting until tender with browned edges. Finishing with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and black pepper adds savory depth and a slight nutty-cheese flavor. The result is crisp-tender broccoli with bright, garlicky notes and a cheesy finish.
Ingredients
- 1½ pounds broccoli cut into evenly-sized florets
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F. Grease a cookie sheet with olive oil or line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the broccoli florets with olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and kosher salt until the broccoli is well coated.
- Spread the broccoli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 16-20 minutes, until it's fork-tender and lightly browned at the edges.
- Toss the roasted broccoli with freshly ground black pepper and grated Parmesan cheese, then serve immediately.
