Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 199kcal
Equipment
- 1 Grill
Ingredients
- 2 heads cauliflower outer leaves removed
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper or to taste
Instructions
- Place the cauliflower stem-side-down on the cutting board. Slice straight down the center, cutting the cauliflower in half. Then cut 1-inch thick steaks from each side, until the outer pieces start breaking into florets. Save the florets for another recipe.
- Preheat the grill on medium heat and close the lid. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and spices. Brush the seasoning on both sides of the cauliflower steaks, getting some of it around the edges as well.
- Place the cauliflower steaks on the grill over direct heat. Grill for 6-7 minutes, then carefully turn over and grill for an additional 6-7 minutes, with the grill lid closed each time.
- Once the cauliflower steaks are fork-tender and caramelized, remove them from the grill. Add any toppings you'd like and serve.

Cooking Tips
- They're done when they're fork-tender, including the stem. That part will finish cooking last.
- Try not to move the steaks around too much. You want to let them sit on the grill so they get those nice grill marks.
- I don't let my steaks cook until they're super soft, I pull them off when they're more al dente.
- If you don't have a grill, you can use a grill pan or cast iron skillet. Or, make these on a sheet pan in the oven, then broil them for the last few minutes.
