Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it's hot enough for roasting.

  2. 2

    Cut the Cauliflower

    Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower. Cut it into florets that are roughly the same size for even cooking.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Lemon

    Zest the lemon and then cut it in half. Set aside the zest and juice the lemon into a small bowl.

Roasting

  1. 4

    Season the Cauliflower

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the florets are evenly coated.

  2. 5

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Spread the seasoned cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until they are golden brown and tender, stirring halfway through.

Topping

  1. 6

    Prepare the Topping

    In a small bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, dried rosemary, and lemon zest.

  2. 7

    Add the Topping

    Remove the roasted cauliflower from the oven and sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top. Return to the oven and roast for an additional 5-7 minutes until the topping is golden brown.

Finishing Touches

  1. 8

    Add Capers and Serve

    Once out of the oven, sprinkle the capers over the roasted cauliflower. Serve warm and enjoy!
