Easy roasted broccoli. My favorite part is the roasted sliced stem pieces.

Easy Roasted Broccoli

broccoli

olive oil

salt and black pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).


Cut broccoli florets from the stalk. Peel the stalk and slice into 1/4-inch slices. Mix florets and stem pieces with olive oil in a bowl and transfer to a baking sheet; season with salt and pepper.


Roast in the preheated oven until broccoli is tender and lightly browned, about 18 minutes.


Easy Roasted Broccoli Haiku: "No need to use bowl. Just toss with oil on pan. Mmmm ... add parmesan!" This couldn't have been easier or more yummy! I bought one of those 12 oz. bags of broccoli florets from the produce department so I didn't have to cut anything - just dumped on the sheet, tossed w/ the oil (1 TB was plenty) and s&p, and 18 min. at 400 deg. was just about perfect! Adding a sprinkle of parmesan at the table was magic, but on its own, just as wonderful and simple of a side dish. I normally steam my broccoli in the microwave w/ butter, lemon juice, s&p, but this was absolutely delicious and something that I'm sure I'll do again and again!

Added a little garlic salt and finished with Parmesan cheese. Fabulous.
Not sure why others would double the cooking time then give a one star review because it was burned....

Very tasty basic recipe. Much better than steaming or boiling your broccoli! Easily customizable to your family's preferences by using different seasonings. The only thing I suggest is using more oil since 1 tbsp wasn't nearly enough. The pan dried out quickly. This would be excellent using flavored olive oils.

I always forget about roasting veggies so I'm happy that I saw this recipe. I used garlic flavoured olive oil and tossed on the baking sheet. Needed a little longer than 18 minutes. Thanks karenatlincoln!

Next best vegetable ever.  Simple.  Flavorful.  Roast it til it is visibly browning about the edges, changes the flavor like magic.  The best vegetable ever is Brussels sprouts done the same way.  You can add sliced or crushed garlic, you can use infused oils, add peppers, bacon or ham,  Parmesan after taking out of oven, or just keep it simple.  Healthy comfort food.

Based upon several of the reviews, I added an extra 1/2 Tablespoon of oil, turned the broccoli at 15 minutes, and  because we like tender, not crunchy broccoli, I added 10 minutes to the total cooking time.  The broccoli was smelling burned by the 15 minute mark.  By the 30 minute mark it was inedible.  Were I to try this again, I would do a foil packate, lower the temperature and increase the time so that the broccoli has a chance to become tender.

Love this recipe. I add garlic powder and I personally prefer my broccoli a little more done so I typically roast it for closer to 30 minutes. It's also great with sesame oil.

Our favorite way to cook broccoli. To the broccoli florets and olive oil we add about a tablespoon of minced garlic and use Montreal Steak Seasoning rather than salt and pepper. I toss all in a plastic bag give it a good shake then spread it over the baking sheet prior to baking. I'm going to try the parmesan cheese addition next time I cook this. I just shake olive oil into the plastic bag but feel I use at least double the amount listed so that it gets over all the florets.

So much more healthy than other ways of eating broccoli. I use Montreal seasoning that has a bit of garlic in it. Always received well.
