Parmesan Roasted Broccoli Recipe

Author: Generations of Savings

Ingredients

  • 2 16 oz bags frozen broccoli or fresh sliced florets
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 4-5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest optional: I didnt use it because Big E accidently threw it away and it still tasted great
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons basil leaves best if they are fresh but I used dried

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place the broccoli florets on a sheet pan in a single layer. Drizzle broccoli with 4-5 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until crisp-tender and the tips of some of the florets are browned.
  • Remove the broccoli from the oven and immediately toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, the lemon zest, lemon juice, Parmesan, and basil. Serve piping hot.
