Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 heads cauliflower
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- ½ teaspoon thyme
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 4 Tablespoons olive oil
- Chopped fresh parsley
- Lemon wedges for garnish
Instructions
- Adjust oven rack to the lower third position. Preheat the oven to 450 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Remove the outer green leaves from the head of the cauliflower and trim the stem. Using a large knife cut the cauliflower in half lengthwise through the center. Cut a 1 ½-inch thick steak from each half. If the head is large, carefully cut one more steak from each of the cut sides. Repeat the process with the other head of the cauliflower. Trim any florets not connected to the stem. There should be about 4 to 8 pieces total.
- Place cauliflower steaks on the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl mix together salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Drizzle olive oil on both sides of each cauliflower steak. Evenly sprinkle the seasoning mixture on both sides of the cauliflower steaks.
- Tightly cover the baking sheet with foil and bake for 5 minutes. Remove the foil from the cauliflower and roast for 10 minutes.
Notes
- Cut steaks thick and slice through the stem so they stay intact.
- Trim the stem slightly, but don’t remove too much or they’ll fall apart.
- Bake covered with foil first to steam and soften, then roast to caramelize.
- For a stovetop option, sear in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
