Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets. Make sure they are in even-sized pieces for uniform cooking.
Spread the broccoli evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the broccoli with olive oil spray, ensuring an even coat without using excessive oil.
In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the broccoli. Toss the florets gently with your hands or a spatula to ensure they are evenly coated.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20 minutes, flipping the broccoli halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
Once the broccoli is tender and slightly crispy on the edges, remove it from the oven.
Drizzle with lemon juice before serving for a fresh, zesty finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, low-fat roasted broccoli!
