servings
  • 2 lb broccoli florets (≈900 g)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil (≈45 mL)
  • 3 cloves garlic - minced
  • ¾ tsp salt (≈5 g)
  • ½ tsp garlic powder (≈2 g)
  • black pepper - to taste
  • ½ lemon - juiced, added right before serving
  • red pepper flakes - to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F conventional or 400°F convection.
  2. Toss the broccoli florets with the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper - everything except the lemon.
  3. Spread the broccoli in a single layer on a sheet pan. Do not crowd the pan.
  4. Roast about 15-20 minutes, tossing once, until the edges are browned. Pull it while the florets still have bite - do not roast until soft and gray.
  5. Squeeze the lemon juice over the broccoli right before serving. Add red pepper flakes if using.
