Description

Crispy and flavorful air fryer frozen broccoli that makes for a perfect side dish in minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag (16 oz) frozen broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the frozen broccoli florets, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Toss until the broccoli is evenly coated.
  3. Place the seasoned broccoli in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the basket; you may need to cook in batches.
  4. Air fry for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking, until the broccoli is crispy and tender.
  5. Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust the cooking time based on your air fryer model and desired crispiness.
  • Feel free to add other seasonings or toppings like Parmesan cheese after air frying.
