    Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

    Set the cauliflower on a cutting board with the stem side facing up; slice vertically into 4 evenly thick steaks. Place the steaks on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the steaks; season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

    Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flip with a spatula, and continue roasting until soft in the center and darkened around the edges, about 15 minutes more.
