Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the cauliflower under cold water, pat dry completely, and cut into bite-sized florets.
Toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
In a separate bowl, mix Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, and Italian seasoning, then coat the cauliflower with this mixture.
Spread the cauliflower on the baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring space between each piece.
Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
Remove from oven, garnish with extra Parmesan and parsley, and serve hot.
