Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the cauliflower with olive oil, then add the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the cauliflower is well coated.
Spread the cauliflower florets out on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly browned, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the tahini sauce. In a small mixing bowl, combine the tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, and warm water.
Whisk until smooth and creamy. If the sauce is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of warm water to reach your desired consistency.
Remove the roasted cauliflower from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
Drizzle the tahini sauce over the roasted cauliflower.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
