How to Make Spicy Honey Roasted Cauliflower
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small bowl, combine honey, Dijon mustard, melted butter, panko bread crumbs, crushed red pepper flakes, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, and 1/2 cup chopped fresh herbs. Mix well and set aside.
- Use a paring knife to pierce the core of each cauliflower stem several times.
- Place cauliflower heads, stem-side down, in a deep baking dish large enough to hold both heads.
- Add 1/4 cup of hot water to the bottom of the baking dish.
- Cover the dish with foil.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the water has evaporated and turned to steam.
- Remove foil.
- Carefully pour off any remaining water from the baking dish.
- Increase oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake for 5 minutes to slightly dry the cauliflower heads.
- Remove from oven and generously coat the cauliflower heads with the bread crumb mixture, ensuring all surfaces are covered.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese over the bread crumb mixture.
- Return to the oven and roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden brown and tender.
- Remove from oven, let rest for a few minutes, and garnish with additional fresh herbs before serving.
