How to Roast Frozen Broccoli

This recipe for roasting frozen broccoli is really so easy and the best way to make a delicious and simple side dish. There is very minimal prep work to get the broccoli ready to roast so let’s walk through those simple steps.

First, you are going to get your oven heating up to 425º F. You want the oven to be on high heat to thaw the broccoli, evaporate any liquid and add the final roasting at the end.

Season the Broccoli

• To prepare the broccoli, spread it out onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Pour the oil over the broccoli, then season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
• Toss the broccoli around in the pan using your hands or a pair of tongs until it is well coated.

Bake

• Bake the broccoli in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 425 F. Shake the pan after 7-10 minutes to flip the broccoli around.

• The broccoli will be done when all of the liquid has evaporated from the bottom of the pan and some of the broccoli florets have darkened from roasting.

Add More Flavor

• Take the pan out of the oven and drizzle the cooked broccoli with lemon juice and top with parmesan cheese.

• The cheese will melt from the hot broccoli, but you can place it under the broiler to crisp up the cheese before serving.

Roasted Broccoli Tips

If you feel like the broccoli is done, but not roasted enough, you can place it under the broiler for 30 seconds to 1 minute to add a little more crispiness.

Storage and Leftovers

Store any leftovers in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave, oven, or air fryer.

Leftover broccoli is great to add to other recipes like this Broccoli Chicken Tortellini Alfredo.
