Pepper Cauliflower Steak

I wanted to make something different one evening for dinner. All I had in the fridge was a big cauliflower.

How do I make it look fancy and bring a fine dining experience at the convenience of my home?  BOOM this recipe popped up in my mind. I remembered seeing this in a menu somewhere so I added my own twist to it.

Great for those vegetarian dinner parties!
