Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp. olive oil ((sub avocado oil))
• 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
• Chopped roasted peanuts and fresh chopped cilantro for garnish
• Chopped roasted peanuts and fresh chopped cilantro for garnish
• 2 Tbsp. ketchup
• 2 Tbsp. honey
• 1 Tbsp. soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp. sweet red chili sauce ((I use Thai Kitchen brand))
• 1 tsp. freshly grated ginger
• 1 tsp. Tom Yum paste* ((sub red Thai curry paste))

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy clean up, if desired. Toss cauliflower in olive oil and salt, and spread out on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and charred in some spots.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, prepare Asian BBQ Sauce by placing all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and whisking to combine.

3. 3

   Drizzle half of Asian BBQ Sauce over roasted cauliflower, and toss to coat. Place cauliflower back in the oven, and bake for 8 to 10 more minutes, tossing every few minutes, until deeply caramelized.

4. 4

   Transfer cauliflower to a bowl or serving platter, and drizzle remaining sauce overtop. Garnish with chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro.
