Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F. Get a baking dish or Dutch oven ready by lining it with parchment paper or spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Take a clean cauliflower head ensuring that the stem and leaves are removed.

Step 3

In a bowl combine melted butter dried parsley, minced garlic, smoked paprika, kosher salt and ground black pepper.

Step 4

Evenly brush the seasoning mix, over the cauliflower.

Step 5

If not tender yet bake for 10 minutes covered with foil followed by another 15 minutes without it until it achieves a brown color.

Once baked drizzle lemon juice or olive oil on top and garnish, with parsley if desired. Serve warm.
