Ingredients

  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning or equal parts garlic powder, dried oregano and dried basil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • cooking spray
  • lemon wedges optional garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
  • Place the broccoli florets in a gallon sized freezer bag. Add the olive oil, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Seal the bag and shake to coat evenly.
  • Pour the broccoli onto the sheet pan in a single layer.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle the parmesan and parsley over the broccoli and drizzle with lemon juice, then serve, garnished with lemon wedges if desired.

Notes

1. If you want your broccoli to stay bright green rather than turning more of an olive color, try blanching it for 2-3 minutes before roasting. 2. Into spicy food? Add some crushed pepper flakes for a little heat! 3. I use parsley because I always have it on hand, but other herbs would also be great like chives, thyme or basil.

      Would bacon work good with this recipe like it does with the Brussels sprouts

      This is our new go-to vegetable side. We absolutely love the flavor and texture. Even our 3-year-old loves it! Sometimes we mix broccoli and halved brussel sprouts and roast them together and it is just as fantastic. Thank you for sharing this tasty and easy recipe!
