Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Prepare the head of cauliflower by cutting off the bottom stem with any leaves that remain. Then, slice into thick steaks OR bite-size florets.
  • Place the cut up cauliflower pieces on a baking sheet in one layer. If they don’t fit in one layer, you may need a second baking sheet.
  • Drizzle the olive oil and melted butter over the pieces.
  • Then, sprinkle on the seasonings. 
  • Toss everything so all the pieces get coated in the fats and seasonings.
  • Roast in the oven at 425°F for 15-20 minutes.

Notes

  • If you want to make this dairy-free or vegan, you can omit the butter and just use all oil.
  • Top with a tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs (optional) like parsley or thyme.
