Description
Crispy air fryer broccoli with garlic and olive oil—ready in 10 minutes! A fast, healthy veggie side for any meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 head of broccoli (cut into bite-sized florets)
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prep the broccoli: Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli. Cut into evenly sized florets.
- Season: In a bowl, toss the broccoli with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Preheat air fryer: Set air fryer to 375°F and let it preheat for 2-3 minutes.
- Air fry: Add the broccoli in a single layer. Cook for 8–10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until browned and crispy at the edges.
- Serve: Remove and serve hot. Optional: sprinkle with parmesan, lemon juice, or chili flakes.
Notes
Dry broccoli thoroughly to avoid steaming instead of roasting.
Cut florets to a uniform size so they cook evenly.
For extra crispiness, cook for 1–2 minutes longer.
