Ingredients
- 1 head Broccoli
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli head. Trim off the tough stem and cut the broccoli into florets.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a marinade.
Add the broccoli florets to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the marinade.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
Place the broccoli in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd.
Air-fry the broccoli for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Once the broccoli is crisp and slightly browned, remove it from the air fryer.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a healthy snack.
