- Step 1
Heat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Step 2
Add the broccoli to a large sheet pan, along with any tiny stray pieces from the cutting board (they will get crunchy and browned). Drizzle with the olive oil, season with ¼ teaspoon salt and toss to coat. Spread out the broccoli and roast until the underside is charred and the thickest stalks are easily pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes.
- Step 3
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, use a fork to mash the butter and miso together. (The mixture doesn’t need to be perfectly uniform.) Add the mixture to the roasted broccoli, then squeeze half the lime juice over it and stir it all together, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the sheet pan. Season as needed with salt and the remaining lime juice. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I’ve found when roasting veg in the oven, warming up the sheet pan with the olive oil for ten or so minutes before adding the veggies helps caramelize faster and makes for tastier sides.
Doc Mott
This is interchangeable with cauliflower

I made this once and forgot the lime. It was fine but nothing amazing. Then made it again and remembered the lime and it was like an entirely different dish. So good! Don’t forget the lime!!
J.D.
Cannellini beans sautéed in a little miso butter make an excellent addition to the broccoli.
V
Used ghee instead of butter as suggested, mainly for easier mixing with the miso. Cooked broccoli slightly longer but I prefer to roast veggies on the longer side. Otherwise I followed the recipe and it was the star of the meal, no parm needed.
Kentfield Barbara
I mixed the miso, butter and juice from lime together before hand and simply tossed it with broccoli.

Miso & broccoli. . . hmmm . . . Asian grain bowl! Made this today (without butter) to add with quinoa/barley, edamame, shitakes, purple cabbage, kale, leftover roasted delicata with soy/ginger/sesame dressing. Delicious, highly adaptable recipe to keep.
Madeleine
Delicious! Skipped the salt because the miso itself is plenty salty. I use a bowl to toss the broccoli in olive oil & seasonings at the start, so I found it easier to put the roasted broccoli back in the bowl and mix with the miso/butter mixture for a more even coating.
Chantal
A nice addition to the miso butter is lemon or orange zest. It goes with most roasted veggies and particularly well with broccoli, as suggested here (with lemon), or with sweet potatoes (orange).
Claudia
How about for halved Brussels sprouts? We are always looking for new ways to roast them.
Janet
Re: adding miso butter after roasting broccoli. Yes that is how I read this recipe. Miso burns easily so it makes sense to add at the end of cooking.
May Lynn
Very tasty! Only had red miso which has a stronger flavor so I used 1 tsp.
Beachwriter
Oh, the heartbreak of too-chewy broccoli. Did I not use enough oil? Did I roast it too long? Not long enough? Did I offend the gods in some way? A sad end for a lovely crown of organic broccoli. The miso butter was nice, if a bit salty.

One of the easiest, most delicious things I’ve ever made from this site. Omg. I had to stop myself from eating all of it before I even got it into the serving dish. If helpful, I heated the baking sheet in the oven during preheating, and then placed the florets cut side down onto the tray to get some browning.
P Park
Absolutely delicious! I will never steam broccoli again. Who knew it could be this tasty?
Wok Don't Run
So easy! So tasty!
QUAASAM
Excellent and easy. Served with chili crisp salmon fillets. A winner.
Nooriya
Wow. Amazing every time!
Jeff
Air fryered thus at 400 for 15 minutes and turned out great.
sarah
so good it makes me think i could go vegetarian.
Allyson Smith
Delicious and easy. Didn’t change anything (except using avocado oil in lieu of olive oil) and I served it alongside 3 Cup Chicken, with white short grain rice. Delicious meal.
DJ
This was delicious, I added more Miso, and it doesn’t really need the lime. Liked it better without it, may add a little maple next time.
Audrey Nickel
This was interesting. Initially I was a little disappointed, but the more I ate, the more I liked it. I followed the recipe exactly...next time may increase the amount of butter. Still, very satisfying!
choco
Really good!! Goes with salmon and potatoes well
Keff
Very simple and easy. It's a little cold where I am so I find it helpful to put the miso/butter ball in the bottom of a mixing bowl and then the roast broccoli on top before tossing. Very tasty vegetable side.
saltychickpea
Yum. I cook them in the air fryer and can easily eat 2 heads of broccoli in one sitting (and I don’t normally like broccoli!) this is a winner
Allison B.
We are past the smoke point for olive oil here. What’s the suggestion for time at a lower temperature?
Cindy
Wondering if this would work with roasted cabbage in place of broccoli?
450 instead
Found that roasting on 450 for a slightly shorter amount of time or 425 and then bumping it up at the last minute can make a nice texture difference. Then again, I was tripling the recipe for a holiday, so I had more moisture in the over to start with.

Use 1 lb turkey and 1 small container of baby bella mushrooms. Baked for 20 at 350
