Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Broccoli florets
- 500 grams Cauliflower florets
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine broccoli florets and cauliflower florets.
Drizzle the olive oil over the florets and toss them to coat evenly.
Add the minced garlic, lemon zest, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss everything together until the florets are well-seasoned.
Spread the seasoned florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the florets are tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
If using, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the florets in the last 5 minutes of roasting for a melted, cheesy touch.
Remove the roasted florets from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious Roasted Florets!
