Keto Roasted Broccoli Recipe
Tender broccoli stems and crispy, browned florets tossed in olive oil, garlic, and Parmesan. A quick, flavorful keto side dish ready in 25 minutes.
Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Large mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds broccoli, cut into florets
- 3-4 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 425 °F and coat a large rimmed baking sheet with non-stick spray. The pan should be ready before the seasoned broccoli goes on it so the florets can start roasting right away.
- Combine the broccoli, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl, tossing until the florets are evenly coated. Look for a light sheen over the broccoli with garlic distributed across the pieces rather than clumped in one spot.
- Arrange the broccoli in one layer on the prepared sheet pan and roast for 18-20 minutes, tossing halfway through. Remove it when the stems yield to a paring knife tip and the floret edges are lightly browned and slightly blistered.
Notes
Texture tip: Thoroughly dry florets before tossing in oil and avoid crowding the sheet pan to ensure high-heat caramelization instead of steaming.
Storage: Cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator to prevent trapped condensation from softening the browned edges.
Reheating: Warm in a hot oven or dry skillet over medium heat to restore crisp edges rather than using a microwave.
