🥘 Ingredients
Main
  • 1 large head broccoli (cut into florets)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
Seasoning
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • red pepper flakes (pinch, optional)
Finish
  • lemon juice (squeeze, for serving)
📝 Instructions
  1. Cut broccoli into uniform bite-size florets. Wash and dry thoroughly. Shared 💡 Wet broccoli steams. Dry broccoli roasts and crisps. The difference is huge.
  2. Toss florets with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Shared 💡 Get the garlic and oil into the crevices of the florets — that is where flavor lives.
  3. Preheat Ninja on Air Fry at 380°F for 3 minutes. Lower Oven
  4. Place broccoli in the pan in a single layer. Air Fry at 380°F for 5 minutes. Lower Oven 💡 Do not crowd — two batches of perfect broccoli is better than one batch of soggy.
  5. Sprinkle Parmesan over the broccoli. Toss gently. Air Fry at 380°F for 4-5 more minutes until edges are crispy and browned. Lower Oven 💡 Parmesan goes in partway through — too early and it burns, too late and it does not crisp.
  6. Transfer to a serving bowl. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and serve immediately. Shared 💡 The lemon juice brightens all the flavors and cuts through the richness of the Parmesan.
💡 Ninja Tips

Fresh Parmesan melts and crisps better than pre-shredded (which has anti-caking agents). The crispy Parmesan bits stuck to the basket are edible gold — scrape them off and sprinkle on top.

Scaling: To double: cook in two batches. To halve: use 1/2 head of broccoli, halve other ingredients.
