Ingredients
1 medium head cauliflower (about 2 pounds), cut into bite-size florets
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup finely grated pecorino (about 2 ounces)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Add the cauliflower, butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl and toss to evenly coat. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the cheese and toss to coat. Transfer the cauliflower to a rimmed baking sheet and spread in an even layer, being sure to scrape all the seasoning from the bowl with a rubber spatula.
- Roast until the cauliflower is golden and tender, tossing halfway through, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
