Ingredients

Tacos:

  • cup rice flour or other gluten free flour
  • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • cup cold water
  • 1 head of cauliflower cut into florets
  • cup gluten-free soy sauce
  • cup gluten-free sweet chili sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • ¼ cup sliced scallions
  • 8 small white corn tortillas gluten free

Slaw:

  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • ½ tablespoon neutral-flavored oil like safflower or peanut
  • ½ teaspoon gluten-free soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon honey (or agave)
  • 2 cups coleslaw mix shredded cabbage and carrots
  • ¼ cup cilantro leaves

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray a sheet pan with cooking spray.
  • Whisk the flour, garlic powder, salt, and water together in a large bowl. Toss the cauliflower florets in the batter until coated. Transfer the cauliflower to the prepared sheet pan, letting any excess batter drip off. Spread the cauliflower out in a single layer and bake in the oven 18-20 minutes until lightly browned. Flip them over halfway through.
  • Meanwhile, heat the soy sauce, sweet chili sauce and rice vinegar in a large skillet. Simmer a few minutes until slightly thickened. Add the baked cauliflower to the sauce and toss to combine. Stir in the scallions.
  • To make the slaw, whisk the rice vinegar, safflower oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, and honey together in a medium bow. Add the coleslaw mix and cilantro and toss to combine.
  • To assemble the tacos, heat the tortillas and top them with a pile of crispy cauliflower and a handful of slaw. Devour!
