Ingredients
  

  • 1 (11.5-ounce) package Fresh Express® Orange Sesame Chopped Kit™
  • 1 large head cauliflower, cut into 1½-inch florets
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup cornstarch
  • ¾ cup gluten-free panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 tbsp gluten-free gochujang
  • 2 tbsp gluten-free tamari (instead of soy sauce)
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • Salt and black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oven: Preheat to 425°F. Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment and lightly oil it.
  • Season cornstarch with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Dredge cauliflower florets in cornstarch, dip in egg, then coat in gluten-free panko. Arrange on the pan and drizzle with the vegetable oil.
  • Bake 10 minutes, flip, then bake 10 minutes more, until golden and crunchy at the edges. (Air fryer: 400°F for 12–15 minutes, shaking halfway.)
  • While the cauliflower bakes, whisk gluten-free gochujang, gluten-free tamari, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat 2–3 minutes until glossy.
  • Transfer hot cauliflower to a large bowl, pour over the warm glaze, and toss to coat evenly.
  • Add the greens from the Fresh Express® Orange Sesame Chopped Kit to a large bowl, drizzle with the dressing from the kit, and toss to lightly coat. Sprinkle with the crunchy toppings.
  • Plate the Korean BBQ cauliflower bites with the prepared salad on the side. Enjoy!
