Ingredients
-
2 medium heads cauliflower (about 2 pounds)
-
⅓ cup slivered oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, plus 2 tablespoons oil from jar, divided
-
½ teaspoon salt, divided
-
½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
-
½ cup finely chopped onion
-
1 clove garlic, minced
-
½ cup dry white wine
-
½ cup heavy cream
-
Chopped fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Remove and discard any cauliflower leaves; leave the stem intact. Place the cauliflower heads, stem-side down, on a cutting board; slice into 3/4-inch-thick slices. (Some florets will come off as you slice; reserve for another use.) Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and brush both sides with 1 tablespoon sun-dried tomato oil. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Roast, turning halfway through, until the cauliflower is tender, about 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon sun-dried tomato oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in sun-dried tomatoes. Increase heat to medium-high and add wine. Cook, stirring, until the liquid has reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add cream and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper; simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Drizzle the sauce over the roasted cauliflower. Sprinkle with basil (or parsley), if desired.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
