For Garnish:

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables

  1. Start by washing the cauliflower florets and mushrooms thoroughly.
  2. Pat dry the mushrooms to prevent excess water from being released during cooking.

Step 2: Sauté the Cauliflower

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the cauliflower florets to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper.
  3. Cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower begins to soften and develop a golden-brown crust.
  4. Remove the cauliflower from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3: Cook the Mushrooms

  1. In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss in the sliced mushrooms.
  2. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms release their moisture and start to brown.
  3. Season lightly with salt to enhance their natural earthy flavors.

Step 4: Make the Garlic Herb Sauce

  1. Push the mushrooms to one side of the skillet and melt 2 tablespoons butter in the cleared space.
  2. Add minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and a pinch of red pepper flakes (if using) to the butter.
  3. Sauté for 1–2 minutes, just until the garlic becomes fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 5: Combine and Simmer

  1. Return the sautéed cauliflower to the skillet with the mushrooms and garlic herb sauce.
  2. Stir everything together, ensuring the sauce evenly coats the vegetables.
  3. Let the mixture cook for another 2–3 minutes to meld the flavors.
