Grilled Cauliflower Steak With Israeli Couscous And Olives Recipes

CAULIFLOWER COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Cook 1 1/2 cups Israeli couscous as the label directs. Drain, then rinse under cold water and toss with olive oil. Cook 3 cups cauliflower florets and 1 sliced shallot in olive oil, 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add a pinch of cinnamon and 1/4 cup chopped dates; cook 2 more minutes. Add to the couscous along with a splash of red wine vinegar, some chopped parsley, and salt and pepper.

EASY GRILLED CAULIFLOWER STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Whisk olive oil and grill seasoning together in a small bowl until smooth.
• Place cauliflower on a cutting board and trim off inedible leaves. Trim off the bottom of the cauliflower stem but make sure to keep the core intact. Cut the cauliflower in half. Cut 1-inch-thick "steaks" out of each half.
• Brush each side with the seasoned oil. Grill for 6 minutes. Flip over and grill for 6 minutes more.

GRILLED CAULIFLOWER STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Whisk oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, smoked paprika, brown sugar, chili powder, and black pepper together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Remove the tough bottom leaves from each cauliflower, taking care not to remove the stem. Place the cauliflower heads onto a cutting board with the stem side facing upwards; cut vertically on both sides of the stem to remove the loose florets. Reserve florets for another use.
• Cut each cauliflower vertically through the stem into 2 even "steaks", 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick. Remove any remaining small leaves from each steak. Place the 4 steaks on a baking sheet.
• Brush one side of the steaks with some of the oil mixture. Place steaks on the grill, oiled side down; grill for 5 minutes. Brush more oil mixture on top of the steaks and gently flip over; grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 5 to 7 minutes more. Drizzle with any remaining oil and remove to a plate. Sprinkle with cilantro.
