Roasted Cauliflower with Tahini

Cauliflower takes center stage in this flavorful side dish, featuring roasted florets seasoned with fragrant fresh oregano, served over a creamy tahini sauce, and topped with shallots and pepperoncini for a tangy, acidic finish.
Ingredients
- 1 large head cauliflower, (cut into florets)
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chopped oregano
- Kosher salt, (as needed)
- Freshly ground black pepper, (as needed)
- 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1 clove garlic, (minced)
- 1 medium shallot, (minced)
- 4 pepperoncini, (thinly sliced)
Instructions

Add the cauliflower to a baking sheet and toss with olive oil and oregano. Season with kosher salt and pepper.

In a small bowl whisk together the tahini with the garlic and ¼ cup (57g) of water until a thin sauce forms (note: it will clump before it thins).
