Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz (454 g) frozen broccoli florets
  • 1 tbsp (14 g / 0.49 oz) olive oil
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Use a Hot Pan: For an extra-crispy sear, place your empty baking sheet in the oven as it preheats. Carefully add the seasoned broccoli to the hot pan to jumpstart the caramelization.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Preheat your oven to 400°F / 204°C.
  3. Spread the frozen broccoli florets in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle generously with sea salt, and toss to coat everything evenly.
  5. Roast for 12-15 minutes.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven, toss the broccoli, and return to roast for another 5-7 minutes, or until the edges are browned and perfectly crispy.
  7. Roast from Frozen: Do not thaw the broccoli first!
  8. Roasting directly from frozen is the key to avoiding a soggy texture and achieving maximum crispiness.
  9. Don't Crowd the Pan: Spread the florets in a single, even layer with space between them. Overcrowding the pan will cause the broccoli to steam instead of roast.
