Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash the broccoli thoroughly and cut it into medium-sized florets.
Dry the broccoli florets well using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Place the broccoli florets in a large mixing bowl.
Lightly spray olive oil over the broccoli to evenly coat them. You need only a light mist to cover all the florets.
Sprinkle salt, black pepper, and garlic powder over the broccoli, then toss everything together until the florets are well-coated with the seasonings.
Spread the seasoned broccoli in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are browned and crispy, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting.
Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle with lemon juice while still hot.
Serve the roasted broccoli warm as a side dish or a healthy crispy snack.
