Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Remove the green leaves and core from the cauliflower. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Mince the garlic cloves finely and add them to the bowl with the cauliflower.
Drizzle the olive oil over the cauliflower and toss to coat evenly.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well blended.
Sprinkle the Parmesan mixture over the cauliflower and toss again to coat each floret thoroughly.
Spread the cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for optimal roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender.
While the cauliflower is roasting, chop the fresh parsley finely for garnish.
Once the cauliflower is done roasting, remove it from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top for a fresh pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy as a light vegetarian main course. Bon appétit!
