Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Remove the outer leaves from the cauliflower and cut it into bite-sized florets.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, smoked paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, and ground black pepper.
Step 4
Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated in the seasoned mixture.
Step 5
Spread the cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded. This will help them caramelize rather than steam.
Step 6
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender, with crispy edges.
Step 7
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and transfer it to a serving dish.
Step 8
Optional: Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy this sweet and smoky dish!
