Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 cup Italian or plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 medium cauliflower head

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Remove all leaves from cauliflower head. Cut cauliflower into florets, all roughly the same size. You can slice the large florets in half, if needed.
  • Melt butter and in a small bowl. Add garlic and stir in.
  • Place breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese in another bowl.
  • Dip each cauliflower piece into butter first, then to breadcrumbs.
  • Place each breaded piece on prepared baking sheet. Repeat until you use up all cauliflower.
  • Roast cauliflower for 35 to 32 minutes, or until the breading is golden brown.

Notes

This cauliflower can be served as a side dish or an appetizer along with a dipping sauce, like Ranch. This breading method prevents the coating mixture from falling off the cauliflower pieces. You can also pour the melted butter over cauliflower bites in a bowl and toss gently to coat. Then sprinkle with breading mixture and stir to coat. Bake as instructed in the recipe above.
