Ingredients:
- 1 medium-sized cauliflower head (about 4 cups of florets)
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil (or your preferred cooking oil)
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). While it’s heating up, prepare your cauliflower. Wash the cauliflower head and cut it into bite-sized florets. Dry them thoroughly to ensure they get crispy in the oven.
- In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Ensure each floret is evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned cauliflower florets evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are in a single layer to ensure even cooking. If you want an extra layer of flavor, sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Roast your cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until it turns golden brown and crispy. You’ll want to give them a gentle toss or shake halfway through the cooking time to ensure all sides get that perfect crunch.
- Once your cauliflower chips are out of the oven and still sizzling, sprinkle them with fresh parsley or chives for a touch of green and freshness.
- Now, grab a chip, or a handful, and savor the satisfaction. Each bite is a delightful crunch of flavor and texture, without the guilt that comes with traditional chips.
