Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by rinsing the vibrant green broccoli florets under cool running water, then dry them thoroughly to remove excess moisture.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F) for about 5 minutes.
  4. Place the seasoned broccoli in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, shaking halfway through.
  5. Check the broccoli for doneness. It should be tender with a slight crunch. Cook longer if desired.
  6. Remove the broccoli and drizzle with lemon juice before serving.
