Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and dry the broccoli and cauliflower florets thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli and cauliflower florets with olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on a large baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer for even roasting.
Roast the broccoli and cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the edges are crispy and golden brown.
Optional: Remove the vegetables from the oven and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Transfer the roasted broccoli and cauliflower to a serving dish and serve warm as a side dish to your favorite meal.
