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.
