Ingredients
  

  • 1 head of cauliflower or 4 cups of florets
  • 3 T olive oil
  • Salt

Instructions
 

  • Prep the cauliflower by washing it and cutting the florets from the stalk. Then cut the florets into bite-sized pieces.
  • Place a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the cauliflower, olive oil, and salt to the hot pan. Stir the florets to fully coat them in the olive oil.
  • Spread the cauliflower florets out so they have plenty of room in the pan. (If need be to create space, work in batches.)
  • Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes or until they start to brown slightly.
  • Stir the cauliflower and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the florets are browned and starting to char on the edges.
  • Serve immediately.
