Ingredients

• 1 head cauliflower
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup vegetable broth
• Juice of 2 lemons
• 2 tablespoons capers, drained
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• Fresh parsley for garnish

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat the cauliflower evenly.
3. Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until it is golden brown and crispy. Flip the florets halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
4. While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the piccata sauce. In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
5. Add the vegetable broth to the saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
6. Stir in the lemon juice and capers. Simmer for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.
7. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter until melted and well combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
8. Once the cauliflower is done roasting, transfer it to a serving dish. Pour the piccata sauce over the cauliflower and toss to coat. Garnish with fresh parsley.
9. Serve the Roasted Cauliflower Piccata as a main dish or a side dish. Enjoy!
