Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Rinse the broccoli florets and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. Ensure they're dry to help them roast properly.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil to coat evenly.
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute the seasonings throughout the broccoli.
Spread the broccoli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet for even roasting.
In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs. Stir until evenly mixed.
Sprinkle the Parmesan and breadcrumb mixture generously over the broccoli, ensuring all florets get a good coating.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 18-20 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and the topping is golden and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve the broccoli warm as a side dish and enjoy!
