Ingredients

  • 6 cups broccoli florets
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped finely
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated

Instructions

  • Clean and prepare the broccoli by cutting it into chunks. Don't cut it too small or it'll overcook. Keep the chunks bigger, so that you'd need to cut them to eat them. If you have broccoli stem, cut it into bite-size pieces.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet. Add the oil and the garlic. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until the garlic starts smelling GREAT.
  • Toss the broccoli with the garlic, oil and butter mixture. Toss well so it's all coated.
  • Add the broccoli to the air fryer and cook at 350-F for about 5-8 minutes, then toss the broccoli and cook an additional 5 minutes until the broccoli is tender crisp.
  • Sprinkle the broccoli with the Parmesan cheese and enjoy!

Notes

Recipe Card Tips

  • Use fresh broccoli only. Frozen broccoli holds too much water and turns soggy instead of crisp.
  • Cut the broccoli into fairly large chunks, about 2 to 3 bites each, to avoid overcooking in the air fryer.
  • Toss halfway through cooking, and let some of the tips get golden brown for extra flavor.
  • Please check the manufacturer's guidelines for your individual air fryer for cooking times and temperatures. My times and temps may need to be adjusted for your particular air fryer.
