Ingredients
- 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 cup of water
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 cup of BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons of Sriracha sauce
- 1/4 cup of honey
- 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of water, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to create a batter.
- Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, making sure to coat it completely, and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden and crispy.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of BBQ sauce, 2 tablespoons of Sriracha sauce, 1/4 cup of honey, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the cauliflower from the oven and brush each floret with the spicy Sriracha BBQ sauce. Return the cauliflower to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
- Remove the cauliflower from the oven and brush with any remaining sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish.
