Equipment

  • Dutch Oven
  • Oven-safe Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium head fresh cauliflower
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic finely grated
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Gently wash your cauliflower and trim its stem and outer leaves, being careful not to cut into the florets. Place it stem-side up in a Dutch oven or a large, oven-safe dish.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, melted butter, grated garlic, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined. This is your delicious coating!
  • Pour about half of your flavorful mixture onto the underside of the cauliflower. Use a brush to spread it thoroughly, making sure to get into all the little crevices.
  • Carefully flip the cauliflower over. Brush the rest of the mixture all over the top and sides, ensuring every part of the cauliflower is wonderfully coated.
  • Cover your dish (with a lid or aluminum foil) and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. This steaming helps it get tender.
  • Remove the cover and increase your oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Bake for another 15 minutes, or until the cauliflower is beautifully golden brown and fork-tender.
  • Let the roasted cauliflower cool for a few minutes. Then, slice it into wedges and serve this impressive, healthy dish!
