Roasted Broccoli with Garlic & Parmesan
Roasted broccoli is the answer to a quick and healthy side dish. Broccoli florets are tossed in olive oil and garlic, then oven roasted to a crisp golden brown.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 head of broccoli
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan
- 1 lemon juiced
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Remove the individual florets from the head of broccoli and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
- On a baking sheet, toss the broccoli florets in olive oil and minced garlic and season with salt and pepper. Spread them out into an even layer on the baking sheet.
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until edges are crispy and slightly browned.

Notes
- I always recommend a block of parmigiano reggiano that you grate yourself versus pre-grated cheese, for the most robust flavor.
- Heavy duty commercial sheet pans are the best for not warping in the oven as well.
