Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss cauliflower florets with 2 tbsp olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper on a large sheet pan. Roast for 20 minutes, tossing halfway, until golden and crisp at the edges.
While cauliflower roasts, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add beef strips in a single layer, season with salt and pepper, and sear undisturbed 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until browned but still pink in the center. Remove beef to a plate and tent with foil.
Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic and red onion to pan, sauté 1-2 minutes until fragrant and softened.
Return beef and any juices to skillet. Add roasted cauliflower. Toss together for 1-2 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving. Serve hot, straight from the skillet.
