Recipe and source notes

Roasted Parmesan Cauliflower

6 servings Source yield

Ingredients

  • 1 large head fresh cauliflower or frozen and thawed (about 6 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 3 garlic cloves, sliced thinly or minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano suggested

Make it step by step

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Rinse cauliflower, core and slice florets into bite-size pieces.
  3. Dry the cauliflower well by patting it with paper towels.
  4. In a baking dish or on a cookie sheet, toss cauliflower florets thoroughly with all seasonings, except Parmesan cheese.
  5. Spread in a single layer in a baking dish.
  6. Bake cauliflower 25-45 minutes, turning every 10 minutes until cauliflower is browned on edges or caramelized and tender. Fork tines should easily pierce the cauliflower.
  7. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese; bake 1-2 minutes more.
  8. Toss to mix and serve.
