Easy, simple, and satisfying, these thick slices of cauliflower steak are golden and caramelized, a great main or side dish with plenty of seasoning and serving ideas for customization!
Preheat oven to 425℉. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
Remove any cauliflower leaves. Trim the core if it’s very long, but make sure to leave it intact.
Starting at one end, cut the cauliflower into 1 inch slices from the top through the core. A large cauliflower typically yields 3-4 steaks and the rest will break into florets.
Carefully arrange the steaks and florets on the greased baking sheet in a single layer.
Use a basting brush to brush with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, until the bottoms are deep golden brown and they are fork tender.
Serve with lemon wedges or other garnishes if desired.

Using a large head of cauliflower is key. A small/medium head will only yield 1-2 steaks and a bunch of florets.
