Parmesan roasted cauliflower

Dietition's Tip

This bread crumb topping is also great over roasted broccoli or Brussels sprouts.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 cups small cauliflower florets

Directions

Fill a medium pot with water and bring to a boil. Heat oven to 375 F. Lightly coat an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, oil, lemon zest, basil, paprika and salt. Use your hands to evenly combine the mixture.

Place the cauliflower in boiling water for 3 minutes; drain. Place the cauliflower in the baking dish and sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the top. Bake for about 15 minutes or until crust is lightly brown.
