Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Remove the outer leaves and thick stem of the cauliflower while keeping the head intact. Slice the cauliflower into 1-inch thick steaks. You should get about 4 steaks from one head.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine olive oil, finely chopped parsley, basil, thyme, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the herb oil.
Step 4
Brush both sides of the cauliflower steaks generously with the herb oil.
Step 5
Place the cauliflower steaks on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the cauliflower is tender and has a nice char.
Step 6
Once cooked, transfer the cauliflower to a serving platter and drizzle any remaining herb oil over the top.
Step 7
Serve warm as a side dish or a healthy Paleo appetizer.
