I decided to give lemon roasted broccoli a try when I was looking for a unique way to prepare broccoli. Florets are roasted after being tossed in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and minced garlic. A squeeze of lemon juice before serving seals the deal.
Ingredients
- 2 heads broccoli , separated into florets
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 clove garlic , minced
- 0.5 teaspoons lemon juice
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
-
2
Toss broccoli florets with extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, pepper, and garlic in a large bowl. Spread the broccoli out in an even layer on a baking sheet.
-
3
Bake in the preheated oven until florets are tender enough to pierce the stems with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and transfer to a serving platter.
-
4
Squeeze lemon juice liberally over broccoli before serving for a refreshing, tangy finish.
