Ingredients
- 500 grams broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoons red chili flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel to ensure optimal roasting results.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until evenly combined.
Step 4
Add the broccoli florets to the bowl and toss them in the spice mixture until all pieces are evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the seasoned broccoli florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not crowded. This allows them to roast evenly and develop a nice crisp texture.
Step 6
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through to ensure even browning. The broccoli should be tender with lightly charred edges when done.
Step 7
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and drizzle the roasted broccoli with lemon juice. Sprinkle with red chili flakes for extra heat, if desired.
Step 8
Serve immediately as a side dish or snack. Enjoy the smoky, spicy flavors!
