Roasted Cauliflower with Parmesan

Yield: 4 Servings
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 30 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
When slicing the head of cauliflower, try to have as much stem included as possible. The stem is what holds the cauliflower into “steaks” or one large slice. You’ll definitely have some random small broken pieces, but hopefully you’ll have at least 2 slices that are whole “steaks”.

Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower (about 2 lbs.) , sliced about 1/2” thick
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (or herbs of choice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning or seasoning salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 3 cloves minced fresh garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt , to taste
  • black pepper , to taste
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese , or to taste
  • 2 Tablespoons minced parsley or cilantro
  • optional - red chili flakes , to taste

Instructions 

  • Pre-heat oven at 400°F/205°C. Set the oven rack in the middle of the oven.
    Preheat Oven

  • Sprinkle with cheese while the cauliflower is still hot so cheese can melt. Or if desired, place in the oven for a minute or two to melt cheese. Transfer to a serving dish and top with parsley or cilantro and optional red chili flakes. Enjoy!

If your air fryer is preheated or if you are cooking multiple batches, you may need to reduce timing by a few minutes (unless preheating is called for in the recipe).
