Ingredients

• 500 grams broccoli florets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1.5 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1.5 teaspoons lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets. Cut them into bite-sized pieces if necessary.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and optional crushed red pepper flakes until well combined.

Step 4

Add the broccoli florets to the bowl and toss them thoroughly until they are evenly coated with the mustard mixture.

Step 5

Spread the coated broccoli florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow for even roasting.

Step 6

Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the florets are tender-crisp and the edges are slightly browned and caramelized.

Step 7

Remove the roasted broccoli from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy on its own for a healthy, flavorful snack.
