For enhanced flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a squeeze of lemon juice after roasting.
The roasting time may vary depending on the size and density of your cauliflower. Check for tenderness with a fork.
Don't discard the smaller florets that break off! Roast them alongside the steaks for a delicious snack.
Serve with a dollop of creamy mashed potatoes, a vibrant chimichurri sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for added texture.
