Instructions
Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the cauliflower
Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Pat them dry with a paper towel to help them crisp during roasting.
Season the cauliflower
In a large bowl, toss the florets with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
Arrange on baking sheet
Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on the baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding so the florets roast instead of steam.
Roast
Bake for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
Add cheese (optional)
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the cauliflower during the last 5 minutes of baking.
Serve
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.
Optional Additions
½ teaspoon cumin for a warm earthy flavor
½ teaspoon chili flakes for heat
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice after roasting
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs for extra crunch
A drizzle of tahini or yogurt sauce
