Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large cauliflower head
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.75 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and cut the head into bite-sized florets.
Place the cauliflower florets in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper over the cauliflower. Toss again to distribute the seasonings.
Spread the seasoned cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and transfer to a serving plate.
Sprinkle the roasted cauliflower with freshly grated parmesan cheese and finely chopped parsley for a final touch of flavor.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy!
