Sicilian Roasted Cauliflower

This golden-brown roasted cauliflower is topped with crispy garlic chips, toasted almonds, sweet golden raisins, and briny capers, then finished with a drizzle of fresh lemon juice to make it pop.

Instructions

Assemble and Serve

Notes

  • For more plump, juicy raisins, rehydrate them in boiling water or white wine for 5-10 minutes before using.
  • Use sliced or slivered almonds to avoid having to chop after frying. They'll also cook more quickly and evenly than whole almonds.
  • Pat raw cauliflower dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture before roasting for crispier edges.
  • Make sure to arrange the cauliflower in a single layer on your baking sheet - overcrowding will steam rather than roast the florets.
  • Add a dash of red pepper flakes or finish with parmesan cheese for even more flavor!
