Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups broccoli florets
  • ½ cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese plus more for topping
  • ¼ cup panko bread crumbs
  • ½ tsp salt plus more for topping
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ cup olive oil plus more for drizzle

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to convection roast 425 degrees and move a rack into top third position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Trim broccoli florets into evenly sized pieces. If washing make sure to pat dry (wet broccoli will not crisp up, it will steam while roasting)
  • In a small mixing bowl combine panko breadcrumbs, shredded parmesan olive oil, salt, and garlic powder.
  • Spread the parmesan/panko mixture on parchment-lined baking sheet. Layer broccoli on top. Drizzle approx 2 tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp salt, and about ¼ cup parmesan over the broccoli. *just eyeball it, measurements don't need to be exact.
  • Roast for 15-20 minutes. Until cheese is crispy, broccoli stem is able to be pierced with knife with a little resistance.
