Crispy Roasted Cauliflower

Ingredients

• 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Optional toppings: grated Parmesan, fresh herbs, or a squeeze of lemon

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
   Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). High heat is key to achieving crispy edges.
2. Prepare the Cauliflower
   Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Pat dry to remove excess moisture.
3. Season
   In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
4. Roast
   Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve
   Transfer to a serving dish and optionally sprinkle with Parmesan, fresh herbs, or a squeeze of lemon juice for extra flavor.
