## Ingredients

- 1 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.25 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon salt-free Italian seasoning
- 1.5 teaspoons grated lemon zest
- 1 lemon wedges
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.33 1/3 cup whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs
- 2 medium cloves garlic
- 2 medium cauliflower heads

## Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Remove and discard outer leaves of cauliflower heads; trim stems. Cut 2 (3/4-inch) steaks from the center of each. Reserve the remaining cauliflower.
2. Stir 1/4 cup oil, 2 tablespoons Parmesan, Italian seasoning, lemon zest, and salt in a small bowl until combined. Brush the mixture on the top of each cauliflower steak.
3. Roast until the cauliflower is fork-tender, about 20 minutes.
4. Combine panko, garlic, 1 tablespoon oil, and the remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan in a small bowl.
5. Remove cauliflower from oven. Reduce oven temperature to 400°F. Sprinkle each steak evenly with the panko mixture, gently pressing to adhere.
