- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2-3 Tbsp avocado oil or evoo
- ½-1 lemon juiced
- ½-1 tsp sea salt or to taste
- cracked pepper, to taste omit for AIP
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F (218C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the broccoli with avocado oil- enough to cover it, but not so much that's is saturated.
- Next, halve the lemon and juice it (1/2 for normal tang, whole for lots of tang!) into the broccoli. Stir to combine. (save the lemon peel)
- Add salt and pepper, and give a final mix.
- Pour the broccoli onto the baking sheet and spread evenly.
- Cut the lemon peels into thin strips and spread them around the sheet.
- Put the pan in the oven and roast the broccoli for about 15-20 minutes, until it just barely starts to get black (we love it a little charred!).
- Plate once slightly cooled, discard the lemon peel, and enjoy!
