What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1 Large Head of Cauliflower
  • 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 teaspoons Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 2 teaspoons BBQ Powder
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste
Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower, keeping the core intact. Slice the cauliflower into 1-inch thick "steaks." You should get about 2-3 steaks from one head of cauliflower.
  3. Mix the olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl to create a seasoning mixture.
  4. Brush both sides of each cauliflower steak with the seasoning mixture. Make sure the steaks are well coated.
  5. Place the cauliflower steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender and golden brown, flipping the steaks halfway through.
  6. If you want additional crispiness, broil the cauliflower steaks for the last 2-3 minutes. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  7. Remove the cauliflower steaks from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve hot.
