Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place cauliflower, stem side down, on a cutting board. Working from center of head, cut four 3/4-inch-thick "steaks" and set aside. Cut end pieces into florets (you should have about 1 cup). Toss florets with 1 teaspoon oil and arrange on one side of a rimmed baking sheet. Toss tomatoes with 1 teaspoon oil and arrange in a single layer on other side of sheet. Season with salt and pepper.

- Meanwhile, roast bell peppers over a high gas flame or under the broiler, turning frequently with tongs, until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam 10 minutes. Rub with paper towels to remove skin. Stem, seed, and coarsely chop.
- Add bell peppers to bowl with tomatoes and stir in 1 teaspoon oil, vinegar, parsley, and capers, if using. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add 2 cauliflower steaks, cover, and cook until underside is golden brown, 5 minutes. Flip cauliflower, season with salt and pepper, and cover. Cook until tender, 10 minutes, then transfer to a baking sheet, loosely tent with foil, and keep warm in oven. Repeat with 1 tablespoon oil and remaining 2 cauliflower steaks.
- Meanwhile, cook couscous according to package instructions. To serve, divide couscous among 4 plates and top with cauliflower steaks and roasted pepper and tomato salad.
