Ingredients

1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon paprika (smoked or sweet, based on preference)

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Prepare the Cauliflower: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Toss well to ensure all the florets are evenly coated.

Roast the Cauliflower: Spread the seasoned cauliflower out in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until the cauliflower is tender and golden brown on the edges.

Add the Cheese: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the roasted cauliflower. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Garnish and Serve: Once done, take the cauliflower out of the oven and transfer it to a serving dish. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for added color and flavor. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for a refreshing squeeze.
