Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese divided
Instructions
- Place the broccoli florets in a large mixing bowl, set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
- Pour olive oil and lemon mixture over the broccoli. Add ¼ cup of the parmesan cheese and stir to combine.

- Use a spoon to move the broccoli around and continue cooking for 4 more minutes.
- Remove from the air fryer, sprinkle with remaining parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
Notes
Don’t skip the first step! Mixing the olive oil and lemon juice will prevent you from biting into a super tart flouret.
It is important to shuffle the broccoli halfway through cooking because the florets brown very quickly.
