Instructions
 

Preheat the Air Fryer:

  • Start by preheating your air fryer to 180°C (360°F) for about 2 minutes. This step is essential for even cooking and achieving a crispy texture.

Prepare the Frozen Broccoli:

  • While the air fryer is preheating, there's no need to thaw the frozen broccoli. Simply remove it from the freezer and place it in a mixing bowl.

  • Sprinkle the frozen broccoli with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. You can adjust the seasoning based on your preferences.

  • Toss the broccoli in the bowl to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Air Frying Process:

  • Once the air fryer is preheated, carefully place the seasoned frozen broccoli in the air fryer basket. It's important to spread them out evenly for proper cooking. Do not overcrowd the basket; if needed, cook in batches.
  • Set the air fryer to 180°C (360°F) and cook the frozen broccoli for 8 minutes. You can shake the basket or use a spatula to stir the broccoli halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.

Check for Doneness:

  • After 8 minutes, check the broccoli for doneness. They should be tender on the inside and have a slightly crispy texture on the outside. If they are not to your desired level of crispiness, you can cook them for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Serve:

  • Once the frozen broccoli is done, transfer it to a serving plate. You can sprinkle a little extra salt and pepper if needed.
  • Serve your air-fried frozen broccoli as a tasty and nutritious side dish for any meal.
