📝 Ingredients

• 1 head of broccoli
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• pinch salt and pepper
• 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tbsp paprika
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp marjoram

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Separate the broccoli into small florets. Rinse thoroughly in cold water and pat dry gently using paper towels.
2. 2Set the air fryer to preheat at 360°F (180°C).
3. 3In a large bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, pepper, and your chosen seasonings. Ensure all florets are evenly coated.
4. 4Place the seasoned broccoli in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If available, use a rack or grill accessory to prevent the broccoli from sticking to the basket's bottom.
5. 5Insert the basket into the air fryer and close it. Cook the broccoli for 15 minutes. For even cooking, periodically pause to shake the basket. Be cautious during this step as the air fryer walls will be hot.
6. 6Test the broccoli by piercing a floret with a fork or knife. It should be tender but retain a slight crispness. If necessary, continue cooking for a few more minutes.
7. 7Once the broccoli reaches your preferred texture, carefully remove it from the air fryer. You may optionally garnish with fresh basil and a squeeze of lemon juice.
8. 8Enjoy your savory, juicy, crispy air fryer broccoli! It's sure to be packed with flavor and become a delightful addition to your meal.
