Ingredients:

  • 1 lb fresh broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions:

  1. Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets using a paper towel or salad spinner to ensure they roast rather than steam.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.
  3. Place the broccoli in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow air circulation.
  4. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 6 to 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking process.
  5. Remove once the edges are mahogany-colored and the stems are tender-crisp.
