Oven Roasted Cauliflower Recipe

Ingredients

Vegetables

• 1 medium cauliflower, sliced in small florets or 1/2 inch thick steaks

Seasonings and Oils

• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
• 1/4 tsp ground paprika
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper, or to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Slice the cauliflower head into 1/2 inch thick steaks or break into even, bite-sized florets to ensure even cooking.
3. Place the cauliflower in the center of the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and melted butter, then toss to coat each piece thoroughly.
4. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, salt, paprika, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning evenly over the cauliflower and toss again to distribute the flavors.
5. Spread the cauliflower evenly on the baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until it achieves your desired level of crispiness and tenderness.

Notes

• Baking time may vary depending on the size of the cauliflower florets or steaks; adjust accordingly to avoid under or overcooking.
• You can substitute the butter with additional olive oil if you prefer a dairy-free option or want to avoid butter.
