Best 5 Crisp Roasted Broccoli Recipes

CRISPY CHEESY ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 F degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and set aside.
• To a large mixing bowl, add broccoli florets and olive oil, giving it a toss with your hands to fully coat the broccoli with the oil. Add pepper and salt and toss again to combine.
• Transfer broccoli to prepared baking sheet and bake 8 minutes. While broccoli is baking, combine cheese and panko in a small bowl.
• Remove baking sheet from oven and sprinkle broccoli with cheese/panko mixture. Spray quickly with a little cooking spray and return to oven for 3-5 minutes, until cheese is melted and a bit crispy.
• Can be served from the baking sheet or alternatively, after broccoli is finished with the first 8 minute bake, transfer broccoli to a large casserole dish. Top with cheese/panko and bake 3-5 minutes and serve directly from the dish. Just make sure the casserole dish is oven safe at 500!

PARMESAN-ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut the broccoli florets from the thick stalks, leaving an inch or two of stalk attached to the florets, discarding the rest of the stalks. Cut the larger pieces through the base of the head with a small knife, pulling the florets apart. You should have about 8 cups of florets. Place the broccoli florets on a sheet pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Toss the garlic on the broccoli and drizzle with 5 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until crisp-tender and the tips of some of the florets are browned.
• Remove the broccoli from the oven and immediately toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, the lemon zest, lemon juice, pine nuts, Parmesan, and basil. Serve hot.

CRISPY PARMESAN BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Combine the broccoli, garlic, 1 tablespoon oil and some salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the remaining tablespoon oil to coat the bottom of a large ovenproof skillet, preferably cast iron. Add the cheese in an even layer followed by the broccoli. Roast until the broccoli is slightly browned and the cheese is golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the ranch, sriracha, lime zest and juice in a small bowl. Remove the skillet from the oven and drizzle the sauce all over the broccoli.

ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
• Place the broccoli florets on the prepared pan. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix well to thoroughly coat all of the broccoli with oil. Spread the broccoli in an even layer, with a bit of space between each floret.
• Roast until the broccoli starts to brown and the stems are tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and toss with parmesan cheese, if using.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

CRISP ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven and a baking sheet to 375.
• Cut broccoli into florets, the smaller the size the quicker it will cook and crispier it will be.
• Toss florets with olive oil to coat.
• Add remaining ingredients and toss well.
• Spread into a single layer on the hot baking sheet.
• If desired sprinkle additional parmesan cheese and black pepper on top.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes for small florets or 15-20 for larger pieces.
