Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head of cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Remove the leaves and cut off the stem of the cauliflower so that you have the whole flower. Slice the cauliflower into about 1.9 cm thick 'steaks'.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper thoroughly.
  4. Arrange the cauliflower steaks on the baking sheet and brush both sides with the seasoned oil mixture.
  5. Bake the steaks for 15 minutes in the preheated oven until they are lightly golden brown and tender.
  6. Carefully flip the steaks with a spatula and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes until they are crispy and golden brown.
  7. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan over the steaks and bake for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and lightly browns.
  8. Remove the steaks from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Nutrition

Keywords: Avoid cutting the cauliflower steaks too thick, as thicker steaks may not become as crispy. Use high-quality olive oil for the best flavor, and feel free to experiment with spices like cumin or curry for variation.
