Ingredients
- 4 cups Cauliflower florets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 cups Parmesan cheese (finely grated, optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Step 2
Wash and thoroughly dry the cauliflower florets. Cut them into bite-sized pieces if necessary.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Step 5
Spread the seasoned florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
Step 6
If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the cauliflower at this point.
Step 7
Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through cooking to achieve even crispiness.
Step 8
Once the cauliflower is golden and tender, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes.
Step 9
Serve immediately with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce, such as ranch or aioli.
