Pepper-Roasted Cauliflower

This tangy-sweet cauliflower recipe is adapted from one I found on chow.com. Prep time does not include marinating time (20 min.).

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 8  cups cauliflower, cut into small, even-size florets (from 1 large head)
• 2  tablespoons soy sauce
• 1⁄2-1  tablespoon  vegetable oil
• 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
• 1  teaspoon granulated sugar

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 450°F and arrange the rack in the middle. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss to coat. Let marinate 20 minutes, tossing cauliflower occasionally.
2. Arrange cauliflower in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast until tender and slightly blackened, about 15-20 minutes.
3. Remove from the oven and serve hot or at room temperature.
