Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 medium green cabbage
Seasonings
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional Garnishes
- Fresh parsley, chopped
- Grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) to prepare for cooking the cabbage steaks.
- Prepare the cabbage: Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage. Slice it into 1-inch thick rounds, creating cabbage steaks.
- Oil the cabbage: Place the cabbage steaks on a flat surface and brush both sides evenly with olive oil.
- Season the steaks: Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper over both sides of the cabbage steaks for a flavorful crust.
- Air fry the cabbage: Arrange the cabbage steaks in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even crispiness and tenderness.
- Garnish and serve: Once cooked until crispy on the edges and fork-tender in the center, garnish with chopped fresh parsley or grated Parmesan if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- Ensure the cabbage slices are evenly cut to cook uniformly.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
- For extra flavor, you can add a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, sprinkle some red pepper flakes along with the other seasonings.
