Grilled Cauliflower Steaks


Cooking Time

10 minutes

Yields

4 cauliflower steaks/ 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup 100% extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon coconut sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of ground black pepper 
  • 2 large heads cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons minced cilantro (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat & lightly oil the grate.
  2. Whisk oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, smoked paprika, coconut sugar, chili powder, and black pepper together in a bowl. Set aside.
  3. Remove the tough bottom leaves from each cauliflower, taking care not to remove the stem. Place the cauliflower heads onto a cutting board with the stem side facing upwards; cut vertically on both sides of the stem to remove the loose florets. Reserve florets for another use.
  4. Cut each cauliflower vertically through the stem into 2 even "steaks", 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick. Remove any remaining small leaves from each steak. Place the 4 steaks on a baking sheet.
  5. Brush one side of the steaks with some of the oil mixture. Place steaks on the grill, oiled side down; grill for 5 minutes. Brush more oil mixture on top of the steaks and gently flip over; grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 5 to 7 minutes more. Drizzle with any remaining oil and remove to a plate. Sprinkle with cilantro.
