• Prep: 15 min
• Cook: 20 min
• Yield: 4 to 5 servings

Ingredients

• 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into 1½-inch florets
• ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons diced Calabrian chiles (found in Italian specialty markets)

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil and some salt and pepper.
