Ingredients
2 lb broccoli florets
2 tbsp neutral oil (such as avocado oil)
2 tsp sriracha sauce
kosher salt
¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Line a large sheet pan with foil for easy cleanup.
Place the broccoli florets in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the neutral oil and sriracha sauce until well combined.
Pour the sriracha oil mixture over the broccoli florets and toss until all pieces are evenly coated. Season generously with kosher salt to your taste.
Spread the seasoned broccoli in a single layer across the prepared sheet pan.
Roast in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time, until the florets are tender-crisp with lightly charred edges.
In the final 3 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the broccoli and return to the oven until the cheese is fully melted and lightly golden.
Transfer to a serving platter and drizzle with additional sriracha sauce on the side or over the top according to your heat preference.
Comments
This is a straightforward weeknight roast with no ingredient surprises: broccoli, oil, sriracha, salt, and cheddar are all stocked at every Charlotte chain. The stated 45 minutes is honest—roasting broccoli low and slow does take 30–35 minutes, plus 5–10 for prep and meltdown—though you can trim it to 25–30 minutes at higher heat if you prefer char. At roughly $1.50 per serving (broccoli $2–2.50, sriracha and cheddar marginal costs), this is a solid value for a side that reheats well and needs zero attention once it hits the sheet pan. The real caveat is that this is a side dish, not a meal; it pairs well with rice or protein but won't stand alone for dinner.
