- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Remove the green leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem, leaving the core intact.
Step 3
Slice the cauliflower into 1-inch thick 'steaks'. You should get about 3-4 slices from one head, with smaller florets falling off (which can also be grilled).
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, thyme, salt, and black pepper to make the herb oil.
Step 5
Brush both sides of the cauliflower steaks generously with the herb oil mixture.
Step 6
Once the grill is hot, carefully place the cauliflower steaks on the grill.
Step 7
Grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the cauliflower is tender and has nice grill marks.
Step 8
Remove the cauliflower from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Step 9
Drizzle with any remaining herb oil before serving for added flavor.
Step 10
Serve warm as a side dish or a delicious vegetarian main course.
