Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Cut the broccoli into evenly-sized florets. If your florets are really thick, slice them in half to help them cook evenly.

Toss the broccoli in a large bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings.

Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure there’s a little space between each piece so they roast, not steam.

Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the edges are crispy and browned and the stems are tender.

Finish with lemon juice or Parmesan if desired, and serve immediately!
