Garlic Sauteed Cauliflower

GaylaJ's Note:

Although I can't say cauliflower is one of my favorite vegetables, I do love it prepared this way. Recipe is adapted from "A Taste of The Hill from St Louis".

• Total Time: 20 mins
• Prep Time: 0 mins
• Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (you can probably use less)
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• crushed red chili pepper, to taste
• salt

Directions:

1. Cook cauliflower in a large pot of salted, boiling water until barely crisp-tender; drain well.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the oil. Saute' the garlic and desired amount of red chile pepper until the garlic just begins to brown (being careful to not let it burn!).
3. Add the cauliflower and cook a few minutes, stirring, until completely coated in oil.
4. Sprinkle with kosher salt to taste and serve.

Love that cauliflower, & this is one wonderful way to prepare it! I'd think this recipe would work just great if broccoli were incorporated with the rest of the ingredients, as well ~ Will have to see about that one another time! Thanks for posting this great & simple recipe! [Made & reviewed in Healthy Choices ABC tag]

Yumm yumm!! I love cauliflower this way, with a little spice!!! I just poured olive oil until it coated the bottom of my Texas skillet so it was probably a little under 1/4 cup. I used garlic powder instead of garlic cloves and it tasted great! Thanks!!

Great! Served this on the side of Mojo Walleye (http://www.recipezaar.com/102422) I used a LOT less oil, just a few tiny sprays. Worked out great. Thanks!
