This Garlic Parmesan Roasted Broccoli recipe features tender, flavorful broccoli florets roasted to perfection with garlic, olive oil, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, this easy and healthy side dish is perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 24 ounces broccoli florets

Seasonings and Oils

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

Finishing Ingredients

  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly oil a baking sheet or coat it with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare the Broccoli: Arrange the broccoli florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the top. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Gently toss everything together to evenly coat the broccoli.
  3. Roast the Broccoli: Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and roast for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
  4. Serve and Finish: Once out of the oven, immediately sprinkle the broccoli with the freshly grated Parmesan cheese and drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Serve hot as a delicious, healthy side dish.

Notes

  • Use fresh broccoli florets for the best texture and flavor.
  • Adjust garlic quantity according to your taste preference.
  • If you prefer crispier broccoli, roast for an additional 2-3 minutes but watch carefully to avoid burning.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan gives better flavor than pre-grated options.
  • Lemon juice can be added just before serving to keep the broccoli from becoming soggy.
