In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil.
Sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, oregano, salt, black pepper, and Parmesan cheese (if using). Mix well to ensure the florets are evenly coated.
3. Roast the Cauliflower
Spread the seasoned cauliflower evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure the florets are in a single layer to allow even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the florets are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
4. Serve
Remove from the oven and transfer the crispy cauliflower to a serving platter.
Garnish with fresh parsley, a squeeze of lemon juice, or your favorite dipping sauce for added flavor.
Tips for Success
Even Cooking: Cut the cauliflower into similar-sized florets to ensure they cook evenly.
Extra Crispy: For a crunchier texture, increase the oven temperature slightly or broil for the last 2-3 minutes.
Add Heat: Sprinkle red chili flakes or cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
Serving Suggestions
Serve as a side with grilled meats, pasta, or rice.
Use as a meatless main dish with a hearty dipping sauce like garlic aioli, tahini, or ranch.
Toss with cooked pasta or salads for an added layer of flavor.
Crispy Roasted Cauliflower is so flavorful and satisfying, you might just forget about meat altogether! It’s a must-try for anyone seeking a healthier, plant-based delight.
