Salt (to taste)
Pepper (to taste)

Add cauliflower: Incorporate cauliflower florets into the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir to combine flavors.
Cook until tender: Continue cooking for another 8-10 minutes until cauliflower is tender yet slightly crunchy, stirring occasionally.
Finish with herbs: If using fresh herbs, sprinkle them over the dish just before serving.
