SMOKY CAULIFLOWER

This is a delicious side dish from TOH, 2013.

1 large head cauliflower broken into 1-inch florets (about 9 cups)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp smoked paprika
3/4 tsp salt
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley

Place cauliflower in a large bowl.

Combine the oil, paprika, and salt; drizzle over cauliflower and toss to coat.

Transfer to a 15 x 10 x 1-inch baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 450 degrees for 10 minutes.

Stir in the garlic and bake 10 to 15 minutes longer until cauliflower is tender and lightly browned, stirring occasionally.

Sprinkle with the parsley.
