Orange Peel Chicken over Cauliflower Steaks

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees F.

Step 2

Cut off the bottom of the cauliflower stem.  Cut the head of the cauliflower in half down the center.  Cut two “steaks” about 1” thick from each half.  Reserve the rest of the head for another use.  (Tip: Run it through a food processor to make cauliflower rice.)

Step 3

Place the four steaks on a parchment-lined baking sheet.  Drizzle with EVOO and coconut aminos.

Step 4

Place the steaks in the oven, and set the timer for 10 minutes. When done, carefully flip them, and bake for another 10 minutes. Meanwhile...👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
