Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Roasted Broccoli and Asparagus Dish.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), setting the stage for a delicious roasted vegetable medley.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, take your fresh broccoli florets and drizzle them with 1 1/2 teaspoons of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of zesty lemon pepper.
Step 3
Give them a good toss until every floret is beautifully coated, then spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Step 4
To add a burst of flavor, place half of your lemon slices on top of the broccoli.
Step 5
Pop the baking sheet into the oven and let the broccoli roast for about 15 minutes, filling your kitchen with a delightful aroma.
Step 6
While that’s happening, grab the trimmed asparagus and toss it into the same mixing bowl.
Step 7
Add the remaining olive oil and lemon pepper, giving it a good mix to ensure the asparagus is evenly coated.
Step 8
After the broccoli has had its time in the oven, carefully take the baking sheet out and add the asparagus in a single layer, topping it off with the rest of the lemon slices.
Step 9
Slide the baking sheet back into the oven for another 10 minutes, allowing the vegetables to roast to perfection.
Step 10
Once they’re done, remove the sheet from the oven and gently toss the broccoli and asparagus together, letting the flavors mingle.
Step 11
Serve this vibrant dish immediately and enjoy the fresh, zesty goodness!.
