Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets. This step is crucial for getting crispy edges. In a large bowl, toss the dry florets with olive oil, garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix until every piece is evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned broccoli in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure there is space between the florets to promote roasting rather than steaming. Use two pans if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Roast for 15-20 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through the cooking time. The broccoli is done when the stems are tender-crisp and the edges are browned and slightly charred.
Remove from the oven. For a bright, fresh finish, squeeze the juice from the lemon half over the hot broccoli, if using. Serve immediately for the best texture.

Yes, it's very healthy. Broccoli is a nutrient-dense vegetable packed with fiber, vitamins C and K, and antioxidants. Roasting is a healthy cooking method that enhances its natural flavor without adding significant fat.
Sogginess is usually caused by three things: not drying the broccoli thoroughly, overcrowding the pan, or roasting at too low a temperature. Ensure florets are bone dry and spread them in a single layer on a hot pan.
Yes, but the texture will be softer. Do not thaw the frozen broccoli first. Toss it directly with the oil and seasonings and roast for a slightly longer time, about 25-30 minutes, at the same high temperature.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For best results, reheat in an oven or air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 5-7 minutes to help restore some of the crispiness. Microwaving will make it soft.
