A simple and flavorful recipe for Air Fryer Cabbage Steaks featuring smoked paprika and garlic seasoning, finished with balsamic glaze and goat cheese for a deliciously crispy and tender vegetable dish.

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 1 medium head green cabbage

Seasonings and Oils

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp caraway seeds
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Toppings

  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
  • ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cabbage Steaks: Cut the medium head of green cabbage into 1-inch thick slices, making sure to keep the core intact to hold the steaks together during cooking.
  2. Make Seasoning Mix: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and caraway seeds to create a flavorful brushing mixture.
  3. Season Cabbage: Brush the seasoning mixture generously on both sides of each cabbage steak. Then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Preheat Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) and allow it to preheat, ensuring even cooking and crispy edges.
  5. Cook First Side: Place the cabbage steaks carefully in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until the bottoms begin to crisp.
  6. Flip and Continue Cooking: Turn the cabbage steaks over and cook for an additional 7 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and the centers are tender but not mushy.
  7. Add Finishing Touches: Remove the cooked cabbage steaks from the air fryer, then drizzle with balsamic glaze and sprinkle crumbled goat cheese over the top just before serving for added flavor and creaminess.

Notes

  • Keep the core intact when slicing cabbage steaks to prevent them from falling apart during cooking.
  • Adjust cooking times slightly depending on the size and thickness of the cabbage slices and your air fryer model.
  • For a vegan option, omit the goat cheese or substitute with a plant-based alternative.
  • The balsamic glaze adds a sweet and tangy finish; if unavailable, you can simmer balsamic vinegar until it reduces to a syrup-like consistency.
