Serves 4

Ingredients

Broccoli florets
4 cups, washed and trimmed
Olive oil
2 tablespoons
Garlic powder
1 teaspoon
Salt
1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
Black pepper
1/4 teaspoon, or to taste
Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup, freshly grated

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the broccoli is evenly coated.
  3. Arrange the seasoned broccoli in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
  4. Cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to promote even browning. Cook until the broccoli is crispy and lightly browned.
  5. Remove the broccoli from the air fryer and immediately sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese, allowing it to melt slightly from the heat.
  6. Serve hot as a delicious side dish or a healthy snack. Enjoy!
