Time 37m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium cauliflower, cored and cut into 1 inch florets
1 medium red onion, finely diced
kosher salt
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon sweet smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, finely grated
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a heavy duty 12-inch skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower and 1/2 teaspoons salt and stir to coat. Cook, without stirring, until the cauliflower is browned on one side; about 4 minutes. Turn each piece over and cook, without stirring, until evenly browned on the second side, about 4 minutes more. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking, stirring often, until browned all over, about 4 minutes longer.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir 2 tablespoons water and the remaining 1 tablespoons oil with the onion, honey, ground coriander, paprika and pepper flakes.
  • Add the onion mixture to the skillet and cook , stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, about 1 minute. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until most of the liquid has evaporated and the cauliflower is glazed, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl, stir in the lemon juice and zest, and garnish with the cilantro. Serve immediately.
