Equipment
Ingredients
- 12 ounces broccoli florets
- 1½ tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese divided
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)
- kosher salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
- Place broccoli in a large bowl, add oil, 2 tablespoons of the grated Pecorino Romano cheese, crushed red pepper (if using), and salt. Toss to coat.
- If your air fryer needs to be preheated, do that now and set it to 375°F.
- Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick spray so the broccoli won't stick.
- Put the broccoli mixture into the basket of the air fryer.
- Cook the broccoli in the air fryer at 375°F for 5 minutes.
- Shake the basket to move the broccoli around so it cooks evenly.
- Cook the broccoli for another 5 minutes until it's crispy but still tender inside.
- In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of cheese with the zest from the lemon.
- Put the cooked broccoli in a serving dish.
- Sprinkle the cheese mixture on top of the broccoli.
