Description
Roasted broccoli with a citrus twist!
Ingredients
Scale
- 16 ounces broccoli florets
- 3 – 4 TBS olive oil (could also use avocado oil which is a bit better for higher heat)
- 1/2 tsp garlic salt
- 1/2 lemon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Place broccoli in a mixing bowl. Toss with olive oil and mix well. The olive oil will get soaked up into the heads of the broccoli so it’s important to stir it well. Distribute the garlic salt over the broccoli and mix it in. The lemon will be used after the broccoli is roasted.
- Lay the broccoli in a single layer across a baking sheet or on top of the parchment paper over the baking sheet.
- Put the pan into the oven and roast until you see some of the broccoli starting to crisp. Open the oven and stir the broccoli around the pan to try to get it somewhat flipped. I don’t spend a ton of time flipping each one, I just try to stir it around a little to allow other edges to get that crisp.
- Continue to roast until it reaches the desired doneness. Some like the broccoli more cooked throughout and some prefer the broccoli to be more crunchy. Pull out of the oven and squeeze the 1/2 lemon over the top of the broccoli.
Notes
- I like to use parchment paper for roasting my vegetables but it’s not necessary. It does help to absorb any excess oil, and this also keeps your baking sheets protected and helps with easy clean up.
