Steps:

• Cook butter and garlic in a medium skillet over medium-low heat, swirling pan often, until foaming subsides and garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add panko and stir to coat evenly. Cook, stirring often, until panko is golden brown, about 4 minutes; season with salt.
• Transfer to a plate and let cool. Discard garlic.
• Do Ahead: Panko can be made 5 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

PANKO-PARMESAN ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Toss broccoli, bread crumbs, olive oil, garlic powder, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, and pepper flakes on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Toss broccoli and continue to roast until golden brown around the edges and slightly crisp, but not mushy, about 10 more minutes.

GARLIC BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Place the bread slices on a baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted and dry, 10 to 12 minutes. While the bread toasts, place the olive oil and garlic in a sauté pan and set over low heat. Cook gently, allowing the garlic to infuse the oil.
• When the bread slices are toasted, place in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add the crumbs to the garlic oil and stir gently until coated. Season to taste with salt and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the oil is absorbed. Remove the garlic cloves. The crumbs will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for about 2 weeks.
