How to Make Baked Cauliflower With Italian Seasoning
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut the bottom stem off a 1.5-2 lb head of cauliflower. Do not break apart the florets.
- Cut an 'X' into the bottom of the stem to help with even steaming.
- Steam the cauliflower for 10 minutes, flip, and steam for another 5-10 minutes, or until fork-tender.
- While cauliflower steams, prepare the topping: Melt 4 tablespoons of margarine in a medium bowl.
- Add 1 cup of breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried basil, and 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano to the melted margarine. Mix well to combine.
- Place the steamed cauliflower in a baking dish (approximately 9x13 inches).
- Spoon the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top and sides of the cauliflower.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and crispy.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
