📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2

Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and cut it into bite-sized florets.

3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, turmeric powder, paprika, garlic powder, lemon juice, orange zest, honey, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until a smooth glaze forms.

4

Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until they are well coated with the glaze.

5

Spread the coated cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

6

Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the cauliflower pieces are tender and lightly golden at the edges.

7

Remove the roasted cauliflower from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes.

8

If desired, garnish with fresh parsley before serving for an extra pop of color and flavor.

9

Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy on its own.
