Cauli Steaks n’ Chickpea Piccata🍋💛🍋💛 Before becoming vegan I was not at all into cooking, except the one thing I would actually cook for the family was chicken piccata. No chickens were used in this dish tho ❤️ #friendsnotfood In my vegan version I made the lemony sauce extra creamy cause why not. I cut my cauliflower into ‘steaks’ but you could could also use florets if you like, but cut the sides flat for maximum caramelization.Enjoy & Happy Wednesday!!HOPE YOU LOVE THIS recipe ❤️ What you need: 1 small/med head cauliflower, sliced lengthwise through the core into 2-3 ‘steaks’ ( i also used the extra florets & sliced them with a flat edge for max caramelization), 1 (15 oz) can of chickpeas drained, rinsed, & dried, neutral oil ( I used sunflower oil) 1 small lemon sliced, kosher salt/pepper, For the sauce: 2 tbl neutral oil, 2 tbl vegan butter, 1/4 cup flour (30g), 1/4 cup dry white wine, 1 1/4 cup vegan ch’kn broth (sub veggie broth), 3 tbl lemon juice, 1/4 cup capers, 2 tbl fresh parsley chopped, 2 tbl non dairy milk What you do: 🍋Brush Cauliflower steaks with oil till coated getting into crevices, season generously with kosher salt/ pepper 🍋 Place steaks & smaller florets on a large parchment lined baking sheet with some thinly sliced lemon, Leave plenty of room btw each steak.
