Roasted Cauliflower with Tahini Sauce Recipe - Quick, Healthy & Ready in 45 Minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
• pinch of cayenne pepper
• chopped fresh parsley
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1/2 t. kosher salt
• 1/4 c. lemon juice
• 4 T. olive oil
• 1/2 c. tahini

Instructions:

1. Prepare the tahini sauce: In a blender or food processor, combine all of the ingredients for the tahini sauce (tahini, garlic, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, cayenne pepper). Blend until combined. (Tahini pastes can vary on how thick they are, if your sauce is thicker than you'd like, add a little warm water, a teaspoon at a time, until it thins out to the desired consistency.) Set the tahini sauce aside (at room temperature or refrigerated) for at least 20 minutes to blend the flavors.Roast the cauliflower: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees f.
2. Place the cauliflower on a large baking sheet.
3. Drizzle with a couple tablespoons of olive oil, enough to coat, and sprinkle with salt to taste. Roast the cauliflower until the bottoms are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Using a thin spatula, flip the cauliflower pieces, continue baking until the cauliflower is tender and golden brown.
4. Sprinkle with parsley (if desired) and serve with the tahini sauce.
