Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
- N/A Lemon wedges (for serving, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the cauliflower and remove the leaves and stem. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned cauliflower evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure the florets are in a single layer and spaced apart to promote even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the cauliflower is tender and lightly browned on the edges.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an optional citrusy kick.
