Ingredients

  • 1 broccoli head medium sized
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (adjust as needed)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degree Fahrenheit.
  • Wash the broccoli head and separate the florets, preferentially remove the long stalks ( I usually wash the florets once again after the florets are separated).
  • Transfer the broccoli florets to a large bowl and add the salt, black pepper and olive oil.
  • Mix well everything so the broccoli florets will nicely coat with the seasoning, let this sit for about 15 minutes.
  • Line a baking sheet with foil or non slip silicon mat and arrange the broccoli florets in a single layer in the sheet.
  • Bake for about 15 to 18 minutes or until the broccoli starts browning slightly.
  • Transfer the baked broccoli florets from the hot oven as soon as it is done so as to prevent it from burning.
  • Enjoy the simple, healthy and delicious oven roasted broccoli florets as a side dish or snack or topping as you wish!
