Ingredients

• 1 head cauliflower
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons capers
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Remove the outer leaves and trim the stem of the cauliflower head. Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them on a baking sheet.
3. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the cauliflower and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss well to coat the cauliflower evenly.
4. Place the baking sheet with the cauliflower in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden brown and tender. Stir the cauliflower halfway through roasting to ensure even browning.
5. While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the caper brown butter. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Cook the butter until it turns a golden brown color and has a nutty aroma, stirring occasionally.
6. Add the minced garlic and capers to the pan with the brown butter. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant.
7. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Be careful as it may splatter. This will deglaze the pan and incorporate the flavors.
8. Once the cauliflower is roasted, transfer it to a serving dish and drizzle the caper brown butter over the top. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
9. Serve the roasted cauliflower with caper brown butter immediately and enjoy!
