  • Arrange and Roast
    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the florets in a single, even layer with space between pieces. Roast at 425°F for 18–22 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the edges are deeply golden and slightly charred.

Notes

  • Pat the florets dry before tossing with oil so they crisp rather than steam, and keep them in a single layer on the pan for the same reason.
  • Stir halfway through roasting for even browning, and finish with parmesan or toasted breadcrumbs for extra crunch if you'd like.
