Ingredients
• 1 large head of cauliflower, sliced into 1-inch thick “steaks”
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This high heat is essential for achieving a beautiful caramelized crust on the cauliflower steaks.
- Prepare the Cauliflower Steaks: Carefully slice the cauliflower head into 1-inch thick slices, keeping the core intact to hold the steaks together. Arrange the cauliflower steaks on a large baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.
- Season the Steaks: In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Brush or drizzle this seasoning mixture over the top of the cauliflower steaks, ensuring even coverage.
- Roast to Perfection: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the cauliflower steaks for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are tender and golden brown on the edges. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
- Serve and Enjoy: Carefully transfer the roasted cauliflower steaks to a serving plate. Garnish with fresh herbs, a drizzle of your favorite sauce, or any other desired toppings. Serve hot and enjoy the delicious, tender results of your labor!
