Herb-Roasted Cauliflower
Seasoned with parsley, garlic and lemon, this incredibly easy cauliflower recipe is a keeper.
Ingredients:
4-5 cups cauliflower florets
¼ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs of your choice, such as parsley, salad burnet and thyme
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper
Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 450°. Place the cauliflower florets in a large roasting pan. Drizzle the olive oil over the cauliflower, and season with the garlic, fresh herbs, salt and pepper.
2. Place the roasting pan in the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes until cauliflower begins to brown in spots, stirring occasionally to ensure even roasting. Remove from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice, tossing to coat; serve immediately while still warm.
