Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to create a well-mixed spice blend.
Add the broccoli florets to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated in the spice blend.
Once the broccoli is well coated, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top and gently toss again to distribute the cheese.
Arrange the broccoli florets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd the basket to allow hot air to circulate freely, ensuring even cooking.
Cook the broccoli in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure the broccoli crisps up evenly.
Once the broccoli is golden brown and crispy, remove it from the air fryer and transfer it to a serving plate.
Serve the crispy air fried broccoli immediately as a tasty low-carb snack or side dish. Enjoy!
