2 heads cauliflower

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

# Instructions:

Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position. Preheat to 500ºF (260ºC).

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 1/2-inch thick steak from each half. If the head is large, carefully cut one more steak from each cut side. Repeat the process with the other head of cauliflower. Trim any florets not connected to the stem. There should be about 4 to 8 pieces in total. Place them on a rimmed baking sheet.
03 -
In a small bowl, mix together salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
04 -
Drizzle olive oil on both sides of each steak. Evenly sprinkle the seasoning mixture on both sides, about 1/4 teaspoon per side.
05 -
Tightly cover the baking sheet with foil and bake for 5 minutes. Remove the foil and continue roasting for 10 minutes. Carefully flip each piece and roast one more time until a golden brown crust forms, about 6 to 8 minutes.

Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with parsley.
# Notes:

For best results, use fresh cauliflower heads with tight florets and minimal discoloration.

Pair with sauces like chimichurri or pesto for added flavor.
