Easy Cauliflower Steaks

Easy Vegan Cauliflower Steaks | Ready in 30 minutes or less!

I love cauliflower steaks.

They require very few ingredients, are easy to prep, and ready in under 30 minutes. 

I mean really, what’s not to love?

On selecting the cauliflower:

Personal experience has taught me that, when it comes to slicing a cauliflower for steaks, aside from making sure your knife is super sharp, the other thing to note is, it’s definitely better to go with a smaller head of cauliflower rather than a larger one.

I know how tempting it is to grab a giant one (aren’t they beautiful?!), especially when the price is per head rather than the pound but, trust me on this one, you want the smaller size. The larger ones tend to fall apart and you don’t get that nice fan shape that looks so pretty on the plate.

What to serve with cauliflower steaks:

We like them with mashed potatoes, green beans, carrots.. Pretty much anything that goes well with meat-based steaks will work equally well with cauliflower steaks. 😉

Ingredients for Easy Cauliflower Steaks:

  • small to medium size cauliflower
  • garlic powder
  • coriander
  • paprika
  • sea salt
  • ground black pepper
  • olive oil

How to make Easy Cauliflower Steaks:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
 
To a small bowl, add garlic powder, coriander, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
 
Cut cauliflower from top to bottom into 1″ thick slices.
 
On both sides of each steak, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning mixture.
 
Bake 15-20 minutes, or until fork tender, turning halfway through the cooking time.

 

Cheers!

    I would never have thought to make cauliflower a main dish like this. They look really good, and that spice mixture sounds delicious!

      Thanks! I usually serve them with sides of mashed potatoes and green beans or peas. Gravy over the top can be a nice addition, too.

    I love cauliflower and we in India already use it as main dish. Never thought it could be used with steak. Loved your recipe. Thanks for sharing.
