Instructions
1.
Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
2.
Wash and chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets.
3.
Spread the florets out onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper (you can skip the parchment for extra browning).
4.
Drizzle the olive oil over the broccoli, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
5.
Toss the broccoli until it is fully and evenly coated in oil.
6.
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until it has achieved your desired level of browning, stirring once after about 15 minutes. Total roasting time may vary based on the size of the broccoli florets and the type of sheet pan used.
Misc.
Notes
Ensure the broccoli is well coated in oil.
Space the broccoli out on the baking sheet to prevent steaming and promote browning.
Avoid very large florets as they take longer to roast, reducing surface area for browning.
