Roasted Cauliflower with Kalamata Vinaigrette

(1) 2-3# head cauliflower
1/4 C. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 small garlic clove
1-2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice(to taste)
1/4 C. pitted kalamata olives, finely chopped

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. with rack in the lower third of the oven.

Cut cauliflower lengthwise into 3/4" thick slices.  Put in a large 4- sided sheet pan and toss with 2 Tbsp. oil and salt and pepper to taste.  Roast in oven, turning once or twice until golden brown and just tender, about 25 minutes.

While cauliflower is roasting, mince and mash garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt, then whisk together with lemon juice and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, olives, and correct seasoning with salt and pepper.  Serve cauliflower drizzled with vinaigrette and Enjoy!
