There are 3 simple steps to roasting any vegetable.
How to Roast Broccoli

- Season.

- 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.
