Best Sunnys Jerk Jam Cauliflower Steaks Recipes

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cut off the cauliflower stems, then place the heads cut-side down and slice into 1/2-inch-thick steaks. Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Transfer to the oven and bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes, flipping after the first 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the pine nuts to a dry medium saute pan and toast over medium heat until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the raisins and butter and season with salt. Cook, tossing, until the butter has melted and coats the pine nuts and raisins. Off the heat, stir in the parsley.
• Transfer the roasted cauliflower to a serving platter. Pour the pine nut-raisin mixture over the top. Season with salt.

SUNNY'S JERK JAM CAULIFLOWER STEAKS

Steps:

• For the cauliflower: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Trim the green leaves from the base of each head of cauliflower. Then trim a sliver off of each base to level it. Make 2 equal slices vertically from the top to the base of each head of cauliflower, creating 4 steaks in total.
• In a large baking dish, add the beer, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, red chile flakes, garlic, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Whisk until the sugar and salt dissolve, then place the steaks in 1 layer in the dish.
• Bake the steaks, flipping them once, until tender but still firm enough to hold their shape, about 20 minutes. Use your judgment when you flip them to determine if they need to cook the full 20 minutes.
• Transfer the cauliflower steaks to a paper towel-lined baking sheet; reserve the baking liquid for the next step. Pat the top of each steak dry as well.
• For the glaze: In a medium bowl, add the jam, jerk seasoning, lime juice and 1/4 cup of the cauliflower baking liquid. Stir to loosen and combine.
• Heat a cast-iron griddle to medium-high heat (cast iron is preferred, but you can use a large pan and do this in batches, or use a nonstick griddle, but cast iron--ooooh--cast iron!!!).
• Drizzle each cauliflower steak with olive oil on both sides followed by a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Place the steaks on the griddle and cook until lightly golden brown when you take a peek beneath, 4 to 6 minutes; gently flip the steaks, then allow them to become golden brown again on the other side. Brush the tops and sides of each liberally with the glaze. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes more, then remove to a platter and sprinkle with the mint and cilantro. Serve warm.
• Chop the chilled leftovers for a quick salad.

CRISPY CAULIFLOWER FLORETS WITH CITRUS SALT

Steps:

• Fill a large pot half full with vegetable oil. Heat to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cornstarch, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Toss in florets to coat.
• In a small bowl, mix together remaining salt, red pepper flakes and lemon zest. When oil is ready, remove half the florets from the batter and add to the oil. Cook until golden, about 4 to 5 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain to paper towels. Sprinkle generously with seasoned salt. Repeat with second batch of florets. Serve immediately.

SUNNY'S EASY BACON CHEESEBURGER SALISBURY STEAKS

Steps:

• For the Salisbury steaks: In a large bowl, add the chuck, breadcrumbs, mustard, ketchup, onion pulp, salt and a few hefty grinds of black pepper and gently mix to combine. Divide into fourths and make four 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick oval burgers; set aside.
• In a large pan with straight sides on medium heat, add the bacon and cook until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the bacon fat in the pan. Cool the bacon, then chop.
• In the same pan, turn the heat to high and add the formed burgers. Sear on one side for a few minutes, then remove to a plate.
• For the sauce: In the same pan, add the beef stock and scrape up any bits. Add the heavy cream and American cheese and stir. Bring to a boil. Stir in the noodles. Nestle the burgers into the noodles and sauce, cover, lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the burgers are done and the noodles are cooked, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley and bacon.
• Serve family style or place a burger on a plate with noodles and serve topped with sauce.
