Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and cumin. Ensure each floret is evenly coated with the spice mixture. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Spread the seasoned cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to promote even browning. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and the edges are beautifully browned and slightly crisp. Flip the florets halfway through the cooking time to ensure even caramelization. (30 minutes)

05

Step

Remove from oven and season generously with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy! (2 minutes)

For enhanced flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of cayenne pepper for extra heat.
To achieve maximum caramelization, ensure the cauliflower florets are dry before roasting. You can pat them dry with a paper towel.
This roasted cauliflower pairs wonderfully with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro.
Feel free to experiment with different spice blends to create your own signature roasted cauliflower recipe. Consider adding turmeric, curry powder, or Italian seasoning.
