Roasted Cauliflower
Delicious easy side dish. Play with a variety of spices and toppings to suit your taste or theme of the meal
Ingredients
- 1 pound Cauliflower
- 1/4 cup olive oil Plus 1 tbsp
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp dry oregano
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 2 cloves minced garlic
Extra toppings:
- lemon zest
- Italian parsley
- capers
- toasted bread crumbs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Rub to coat shallow baking sheet with 1 tbsp of olive oil. If you like, you can line pan with aluminum foil. I don't recommend using parchment paper as the cauliflower will not get crispy
- Cut up cauliflower so all the florets are approximately the same size and place in large mixing bowl.
- Mix all of the spices together in a bowl with ¼ cup olive oil
- Toss spice mixture with cauliflower and spread evenly on pan
- Roast in oven for 15-20 minutes, until desired doneness. I like my cauliflower to be firm
- Serve warm topped with chopped parsley and lemon zest
