Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting the cauliflower.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Remove the leaves from the cauliflower, then cut it into bite-sized florets. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with a kitchen towel.

  3. 3

    Mix Jerk Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil and jerk seasoning. Mix well to create a marinade.

  4. 4

    Coat Cauliflower

    Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl with the marinade and toss until all florets are evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Chop Jalapeno

    Finely chop the jalapeno pepper, removing seeds if you prefer less heat.

  6. 6

    Add Jalapeno and Herbs

    Add the chopped jalapeno and fresh herbs to the coated cauliflower and toss again to distribute evenly.

Roasting

  1. 7

    Arrange Cauliflower on Baking Sheet

    Spread the marinated cauliflower in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  2. 8

    Roast Cauliflower

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden brown and tender, flipping halfway through.

Serving

  1. 9

    Prepare to Serve

    Once roasted, remove the cauliflower from the oven. If using feta, crumble it over the top before serving.

  2. 10

    Garnish

    Serve the jerk roasted cauliflower hot, garnished with lime wedges and a sprinkle of salt to taste.
