Instructions

Creating Sweet and Spicy Baked Cauliflower is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare the Cauliflower: Clean and cut the cauliflower into evenly sized florets to ensure they cook evenly.
3. Mix the Sauce: In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, soy sauce, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
4. Coat the Cauliflower: Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss them in the sauce until they are evenly coated.
5. Spread on Baking Sheet: Transfer the coated cauliflower onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer for even cooking.
6. Bake it: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and has a golden-brown color, tossing halfway through for even roasting.
7. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for a touch of freshness.

Following these steps will lead you to a delicious outcome, and you’ll witness the vibrant transformation of cauliflower into a sweet and spicy dish that everyone will love.
