Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 2 cloves Garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Cut the cauliflower head into large florets, keeping them relatively the same size for even cooking.
Step 3
Rinse the cauliflower florets under cold water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Step 4
In a food processor, combine the olive oil, parsley, basil, garlic cloves, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, and optional crushed red pepper flakes.
Step 5
Pulse the mixture until the herbs and garlic are finely chopped and the ingredients are well combined, forming a vibrant herb oil.
Step 6
Toss the cauliflower florets in a large bowl with about 3 tablespoons of the herb oil, ensuring they are lightly and evenly coated.
Step 7
Place the cauliflower florets on the preheated grill, grilling them for about 8-10 minutes on each side until they are tender and have developed nice charred grill marks.
Step 8
Once the cauliflower is grilled to perfection, transfer the florets to a serving platter.
Step 9
Drizzle the remaining herb oil over the grilled cauliflower just before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb grilled cauliflower with herb oil.
