Ingredients
  

1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

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

      Roast the Cauliflower: Spread the seasoned cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the florets are golden brown and tender, flipping them halfway through to ensure even roasting.

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

          Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove the cauliflower from the oven. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zing.

            Enjoy: This dish can be served warm as a side or a healthy snack. Enjoy the crispy, cheesy, and flavorful taste of your Parmesan Garlic Roasted Cauliflower!
