With just a few ingredients, this recipe brings out the natural flavors of broccoli, enhanced by the savory notes of garlic and the nuttiness of parmesan cheese. It's perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or as a healthy, flavorful addition to any meal.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash the broccoli thoroughly and pat dry.
- Cut the broccoli into uniform florets, ensuring none are too large or too small.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the broccoli florets.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the broccoli.
- Sprinkle the garlic powder evenly over the broccoli.
- Using your hands or a spatula, toss the broccoli to ensure each floret is well-coated with olive oil and garlic powder.
- Spread the seasoned broccoli florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. Ensure the florets are not overcrowded to allow for even roasting.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Roast for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the broccoli florets.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven.
- Roast for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and the Parmesan cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Remove from the oven.
- Transfer the roasted broccoli to a serving dish and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Make sure to dry the broccoli well after washing to ensure it roasts properly and doesn't steam in the oven.
- Toss the broccoli thoroughly with olive oil to ensure each piece is well-coated for even roasting.
- Spread the broccoli out in a single layer on the baking sheet. Overcrowding can cause the broccoli to steam rather than roast, resulting in less crispness.
- For an added touch of flavor, sprinkle some lemon zest over the broccoli before roasting.
- If using fresh garlic instead of garlic powder, mince finely to avoid burning during roasting.
- Keep an eye on the broccoli towards the end of the roasting time to avoid overcooking and charring.
Once roasted to perfection, your Garlic Parmesan Broccoli will have beautifully caramelized edges, a tender crunch, and a rich, savory flavor that pairs well with a variety of main dishes. Serve it hot out of the oven to enjoy the melted parmesan and fragrant garlic at their best. Enjoy this easy and tasty side dish that will surely become a new favorite in your kitchen!
