Instructions

Preheat oven to 425° with a baking sheet on rack in lowest position.

Trim cauliflower leaves and stem, leaving core intact. Using a large knife, cut cauliflower vertically into four ¾-inch-thick steaks.

Brush one side of steaks with 2 Tbsp. oil, sprinkle with 1½ tsp. oregano, and season with salt and pepper.

Carefully remove hot baking sheet from oven; add steaks oiled sides down. Brush steaks with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil and sprinkle with remaining 1½ tsp. oregano; season with salt and pepper.

Roast steaks 12 minutes, then flip and roast 5 minutes more.

Brush steaks with pesto and top with mozzarella; roast until cheese melts and edges of steaks begin to brown, 3 minutes.
