I love roasting vegetables! It is such an easy way to prepare veggies, I always try to have veggies or fruit with every meal, but who has time to make a complicated side dish?? Not me. This oven roasted broccoli is one of our favorites.
There are 3 simple steps to roasting any vegetable.
How to Roast Broccoli
- Wash and cut broccoli.
- Coat with olive oil.
- Season.
- Mix and work into an even layer on the sheet tray without crowding the vegetables.
- Roast in the oven until just tender and browned.
I keep the seasoning for this oven roasted broccoli pretty simple, just salt and pepper and some garlic powder.
You can add lemon zest or parmesan, or both. I usually keep it simple though because I forget to make a vegetable until dinner is almost done 90% of the time. Ha!
There are only two tricks to know when roasting vegetables - get all the vegetables into an even layer...
...and don't crowd the pan! Crowding the pan will result in moisture, which won't let the broccoli roast properly.
That's it! An easy recipe that really is the best broccoli recipe! Tell me, what is your FAVORITE vegetable to roast?? I have a fantastic oven roasted carrots recipe and a delicious crispy oven roasted potato recipe!

Bake Frozen Broccoli in the Oven
Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Sheet pan
Ingredients
- 4 cups frozen broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°.
- Combine frozen broccoli florets, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss to coat evenly.
- Spread the coated broccoli on a baking sheet, spacing the broccoli out well. (Don't overcrowd the pan.)
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, until the broccoli is slightly crispy and golden brown on the edges, turning halfway through.
- If desired, sprinkle with parmesan cheese before serving.
Notes
- Use a High-Quality Oil: Toss the broccoli with a high-smoke-point oil, such as olive or avocado. This helps achieve a crispy texture and prevents burning.
- Add a Finishing Touch: For extra flavor, you can drizzle a bit of balsamic vinegar or lemon juice over the broccoli right before serving. Fresh herbs like parsley or chives also make a nice addition.
- Use Parchment Paper: Lining your baking sheet with parchment paper can help prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
