Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Cut the cauliflower head into bite-sized florets and wash them thoroughly. Pat the florets dry with a clean kitchen towel.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Add the cauliflower florets to the mixing bowl and toss well to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the spice and oil mixture.
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
Place the seasoned cauliflower florets in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd them. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the cauliflower at 375°F for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking.
Once the cauliflower is crispy and golden brown, remove it from the air fryer and transfer it to a serving platter.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the crispy cauliflower and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for added flavor and garnish.
Serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your low sodium air-fried cauliflower as a healthy snack or side dish.
