Cauliflower, cut into 2-inch florets

1 head

Oil, extra-virgin olive

15 ounces

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. 
  2. Place the cauliflower florets onto a sheet pan, and drizzle with 2 to 3-tablespoons of oil. 
  3. Season with salt and pepper, and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cauliflower is golden and tender. 
  4. Remove from the oven, add the chickpeas, and toss to combine. 
  5. Heat a medium skillet to medium high; add 1-tablespoon oil and the shallots, and sauté until soft and fragrant, about 1 minute. 
  6. Add the garlic, and cook 1 minute longer, stirring constantly to keep from scorching.

  9. Season with ½-teaspoon salt, and a few pinches of pepper.
