Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional for non-strict keto)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure all the florets are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the seasoned broccoli evenly across the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer for even roasting and maximum crispiness.
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crisp. Halfway through the cooking time, stir the broccoli with a spatula for even roasting.
Remove the broccoli from the oven and immediately sprinkle the lemon zest over the hot broccoli. If desired and permissible within your keto diet, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top for added flavor.
Transfer the roasted broccoli to a serving dish and enjoy immediately as a delightful keto-friendly side dish.
