Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat over to 450 degrees F.

  2. 2

    In a large mixing bowl place the cauliflower florets with the garlic. In a small mixing bowl combine the olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, corn starch, salt and pepper and whisk to combine.

  3. 3

    Pour the olive oil mixture over the cauliflower and use tongs to stir until all of the cauliflower is coated.

  4. 4

    Spread the cauliflower on a non-stick baking sheet and roast until the cauliflower is just starting to soften and turn golden brown on the bottom side, about 25 minutes flipping the cauliflower halfway through.

  5. 5

    Remove the cauliflower from the oven when it is crispy but soft on the inside and sprinkle additional parmesan cheese over the cauliflower if you want along with fresh parsley.

  6. 6

    Remove and serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Notes

I like to add the two whole cloves of garlic to the cauliflower while roasting to add even more garlic flavor. Feel free to leave those out and just use minced garlic if you want less of a garlic flavor. Once cooked and cooled, store leftover cauliflower in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. To reheat leftovers place in a warm oven, or your air fryer, for 10-15 minutes to crisp up again. This is a dish that is best served fresh so I don’t recommend freezing as you will loose the crispy texture during the freezing and defrosting process.
