Air Fryer Broccoli

Ingredients

• 1 lb broccoli florets (cut into bite-sized pieces)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 0.5 tsp garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed, for finishing)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

3. 3

   Place the seasoned broccoli in the air fryer basket in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.

4. 4

   Cook for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the broccoli is tender and the edges are slightly charred.

5. 5

   Remove from the air fryer and drizzle with fresh lemon juice before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese or red pepper flakes after cooking. Ensure the broccoli is completely dry before tossing with oil to achieve the best char.
