Ingredients
- 2 pounds cauliflower florets (about 1 large head, see note 1)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice from 1 lemon (see note 2)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese (1 ounce, see note 3)
Instructions
- Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, add cauliflower, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and salt and pepper (I like at least 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; sometimes I do a little more).
- Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Roast until florets are tender-crisp and browning around the edges, about 35 to 40 minutes.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with parmesan cheese and toss to coat. Return to oven and bake until cheese is melted, about 1 to 2 minutes longer.
Notes
- Cauliflower: Look for one that is bright off-white, firm and heavy, without any brown discoloration or soft spots. Cut the cauliflower florets into pieces that are all about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Lemon: The zest of one lemon (about 1 teaspoon) can be added with the lemon juice. Just zest the lemon before you cut it to squeeze it.
- Parmesan: Any hard, aged cheese will work well instead. Think Parmesan, grated Asiago, pecorino, or Romano cheese.
- Yield: This recipe makes 8 servings.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered for up to 4 days.
