Serving size
Ingredients
- 1 Cauliflower Head, Core and Leaves Removed, (Cut Into 2-inch Pieces)
- 2 tbsp. Olive Oil
- 1 tsp. Smoked Paprika
- 1 tsp. Kosher Salt
- 1 tsp. Onion Powder
- 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
- ½ tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
- ½ tsp. Dried Thyme
- ½ tsp. Black Pepper
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Wash the cauliflower head and cut it into 2-inch pieces. Make sure the pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, kosher salt, onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, dried thyme, and black pepper.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower pieces with olive oil until they are well coated.
Step 5
Then sprinkle the spice mixture over the cauliflower, tossing again to ensure each piece is evenly coated.
Step 6
Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure the pieces are not overcrowded to allow them to roast properly and get a nice char.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes.
Step 8
Halfway through the roasting time, turn the cauliflower pieces to ensure even cooking and blackening.
Step 9
The cauliflower is done when it is tender on the inside and has a nice blackened char on the outside.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy!
