Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with a little of the 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil.
- In a large bowl, combine 1½ pounds broccoli florets, 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Toss thoroughly so the broccoli is evenly coated.
- Spread the broccoli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between florets so they roast rather than steam.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 16–20 minutes, stirring or flipping once halfway through, until the broccoli is fork-tender and the edges are lightly browned.
- Remove the broccoli from the oven and immediately toss with ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese. Serve right away.
