Description
A delicious side dish of roasted cauliflower tossed in garlic butter, caramelized until golden, and garnished with fresh parsley.
Ingredients
- 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk the melted butter and minced garlic together until evenly combined.
- Place the cauliflower florets on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour the garlic butter over them and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat every floret.
- Spread the cauliflower out in a single layer so pieces roast instead of steam.
- Roast for about 25–30 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the florets are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top before serving.
Notes
For a vegan option, use olive oil instead of butter and add a pinch of smoked paprika for richness. A squeeze of lemon can enhance the flavor.
