Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Roasted Cauliflower Piccata Dish.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven's broiler to high, positioning the rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Step 2
For effortless cleanup, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Step 3
Prepare your cauliflower by removing any inedible leaves and trimming the bottom of the stem while keeping the core intact.
Step 4
Slice the cauliflower in half, then cut 1-inch-thick steaks from each half.
Step 5
Arrange the cauliflower steaks on the prepared baking sheet, saving any leftover bits for future culinary adventures.
Step 6
Generously brush both sides of the steaks with olive oil, then season them with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
Step 7
Broil the cauliflower steaks for 10 minutes, then carefully flip them with a spatula and broil for an additional 6 minutes, until they achieve a golden hue and tender texture.
Step 8
While the cauliflower is broiling, whisk together chicken broth, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and cornstarch in a small saucepan.
Step 9
Heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a boil.
Step 10
Once boiling, stir in butter and capers, whisking constantly for about 3 minutes.
Step 11
Afterward, turn off the heat and let the sauce sit for a minute to thicken slightly.
Step 12
To serve, elegantly plate the roasted cauliflower steaks, drizzle the vibrant lemon-caper sauce over the top, and finish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
Step 13
Enjoy this delightful dish that transforms humble cauliflower into a gourmet experience!.
