Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 4 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons chicken broth

  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons sambal oelek chili paste

  • 2 teaspoons dry sherry

  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 6 cups cauliflower florets

  • ¼ cup unsalted roasted peanuts

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 2 green onion tops, chopped

Directions

  1. Combine soy sauce, chicken broth, vinegar, chili paste, sherry, and cornstarch in a large bowl. Mix until cornstarch is dissolved. Set sauce aside.

  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook cauliflower until golden brown and charred in places, about 15 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the sauce and cook until sauce starts to thicken, about 2 minutes. Add peanuts and garlic and cook for 2 minutes more.

  3. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with green onion tops.

Cook's Note:

You can get 6 cups cauliflower florets from one 3-pound head.
