We recommend letting the oven preheat for 5-7 minutes for maximum crispiness when using Air Fry. __ Note there is no preheat indicator bar when using Air Fry.
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F on Air Fry Mode.
2. Lay parchment or foil on baking sheet and spray with olive oil.
3. Cut stem of cauliflower flush with the bottom of the cauliflower. Remove any excess green leaves. Cut through the center of the cauliflower then cut each half into about 3/4” thick slices. Outer part of cauliflower will fall apart into smaller pieces. Just gather them in a circle and air fry as smaller pieces.
4. Make the marinade: in bowl combine olive oil, Worcestershire, garlic, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
5. Lay steaks on prepared baking sheet. Brush marinade on both sides of the cauliflower steaks and over the smaller loose florets.
6. Combine parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese in bowl. Set aside.
7. Air Fry cauliflower at 425°F for 15 minutes then flip. Add about 1-2 tablespoons marinara sauce over each slice of cauliflower and top with cheese mixture.
8. Air Fry for additional 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and sauce is warmed.
9. Top with chopped parsley and serve on bed of lettuce greens or serve the cauliflower in a sandwich. Serve with optional lemon wedges.
