Honey-Lemon Glazed Cauliflower

Submitted by DailyInspiration

"From Fine Cooking Magazine - "This sweet-tart glaze along with the heat of crushed red pepper and sweet smoked paprika, and the depth of coriander -- give a mellow cauliflower a zesty profile"."

 

• Ready In: 37mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 59.14 ml extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 medium cauliflower, cored and cut into 1 inch florets
• 1 medium red onion, finely diced
• kosher salt
• 29.58 ml honey
• 4.92 ml ground coriander
• 2.46 ml sweet smoked paprika
• 1.23 ml crushed red pepper flakes
• 29.58 ml fresh lemon juice
• 2.46 ml lemon zest, finely grated
• 14.79 ml fresh cilantro, chopped

directions

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.

This was a nice and different way to fix my cauliflower! All the flavors came together and the cauliflower was nicely coated. Thanks Nancy! Made for Everyday is a Holiday game.
