notes
Can I use frozen broccoli?
Yes, frozen broccoli works great. Do not defrost before cooking. Season in the same way and use an extra 5 minutes of air frying time.
How to Make Oven Roasted Broccoli
Preheat the oven to 400° Fahrenheit. Arrange the seasoned broccoli florets in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for about 15-20 minutes. Stir halfway through so that it cooks evenly. Serve hot.
