Roasted Cauliflower with Pine Nuts and Raisins image

This roasted cauliflower with pine nuts and raisins is a delicious side dish served warm or cold. Tossed with a lemon and olive oil vinaigrette and fresh parsley, it's a fresh Mediterranean recipe that goes with just about anything! Capers or olives can be substituted for raisins for a saltier, lower carb version.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large head cauliflower (cored and cut into florets (about 4 cups total))
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (divided)
kosher salt
black pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup pine nuts ((see notes))
1/4 cup golden raisins
juice and zest of one lemon
1/4 cup fresh Italian parsley (chopped)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the cauliflower on the baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat. Spread cauliflower evenly on the baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, tossing once, or until browned and tender.
  • Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts (1/4 cup) carefully in a medium, dry skillet over medium heat. Keep an eye on them- they are easy to burn! Once they begin to turn fragrant and have a light brown color, add the raisins (1/4 cup), remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and lemon juice to the skillet. Cook for about one more minute on very low heat, or until raisins have softened and plumped a bit.
  • Turn off heat and stir in the parsley (1/4 cup) and lemon zest.
  • Toss the roasted cauliflower with the pine nut and raisin mixture. Serve immediately when it's warm, or allow to cool to room temperature so the flavors marry a bit. Add more salt and pepper if necessary.

2 heads cauliflower, cut vertically into 1/2-inch-thick steaks (4 to 6 steaks total)
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons pine nuts
1/4 cup golden raisins
