My aunt Morgan was a vegetarian. So when we would have a big family dinner, we’d always make a few vegetarian dishes, one of those being cauliflower steaks. It’s a delicious and tender vegetable, making it a great substitute for beef steaks.

Directions
For the cauliflower: Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the outer leaves and trim the stems of the cauliflowers. Cut the cauliflowers in half, from the tops through the stems. From each cauliflower half, cut 1- to 1 1/2-inch-thick slices from top through the stem.
Drizzle the cauliflower steaks with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, paprika and cayenne.
Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the cauliflower steaks on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until lightly charred. Remove and set aside.
For the chimichurri: To a food processor, add the parsley, cilantro, olive oil, vinegar, garlic, jalapeño, shallots, salt and pepper. Blend until the herbs and vegetables are finely chopped and the consistency is slightly thick, adding more olive oil as needed. Taste and adjust the seasonings.
Place the cauliflower steaks on a platter, then spoon the chimichurri over the top. Serve!
