Crispy Parmesan Broccoli Chips
Turn fresh broccoli into a crispy treat by steaming then flattening it before baking. Infused with a zesty garlic and lemon mix, and topped with Parmesan cheese, these chips are a tasty snack.
Ingredients
- 1 Broccoli
- 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 Lemon Juice Squeezed
- Salt
- Pepper
- 1.2 Cups Parmesan Cheese Grated
- Garlic
Instructions
- Steam or boil the broccoli for about 5 minutes. Next arrange the broccoli on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Gently press down on each broccoli piece with the bottom of a glass or mason jar to flatten it. This creates the smashed broccoli look.
- In a bowl combine the oil, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and garlic.
- Stir the mixture until everything is well combined.
- Drizzle the mixture over the flattened broccoli florets.
- Next sprinkle the freshly grated parmesan cheese generously on top.
- Place the prepared baking sheet into the oven and bake at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and crispy.
- Your crispy parmesan broccoli chips are now ready to enjoy. Eat on their own or pair with a delicious garlic parm sauce.
Notes
Baking Sheet. Use a large-rimmed baking sheet to give each piece of broccoli plenty of space, allowing for even cooking and maximum crispiness.
Space: Spread the broccoli on the baking sheet evenly in a single, thin layer so each piece gets crispy edges and browns beautifully.
Season Well: Make sure to cover the broccoli well so each piece is seasoned to perfection—this ensures that every bite is packed with flavor.
