Thick slices cook on a baking sheet in a scorching oven, which allows them to be steamed and browned. Roasting ensures tender cooked cauliflower pieces with a golden crust for a delightful contrast in textures. The simple preparation allows creativity in flavors and sauces to serve with each steak.
There are two steps for cooking cauliflower steaks in the oven; steam first and then roast. This process all happens in one pan in a blazing hot 500-degree oven.
These veggie steaks are now ready to get roasted in a dry-heat environment of the oven. In about 15 minutes of cook time, the exterior becomes golden brown with crisp edges. It’s a beautiful contrast of textures and flavors!
Alternative methods
Advertisement:If you’re making just a few steaks at a time, you can cook them using the same method but in a large cast iron pan. Alternatively, the steaks can be cooked over medium-high heat in a skillet on both sides until fork tender.
I prefer the steam and then roast method, but feel free to try different ways and see what works best!

Cover and steam until tender
To steam the cauliflower steaks, the baking tray is tightly covered with foil for the first five minutes of roasting. This process allows the moisture being released from the cell walls of the cut vegetable to turn into steam. The steam becomes trapped, allowing the hot moisture to cook the thick core and florets first. This step produces a more tender steak.
