Directions:Rinse and dry eggplant Cut into ¾-inch slices Drizzle eggplant pieces with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning blend. Use a food silicone brush to coat eggplant steaks evenly and spread them out on your cooking sheet or air fryer basket so they don’t overlap. I'm using the Cuisinart air fryer oven. As you can see my basket allows me to fit 6 large slices at once. Air fry mode at 400F (200C) for 12-14 minutes. Flip each eggplant piece on the other side halfway through the cooking or cook until the golden brown color and the skin is hard and crispy. While the eggplant is being cooked, prepare the garlic parmesan butter. In a medium ceramic bowl, mix the soft butter with chopped garlic, freshly grated parmesan, and chopped parsley. When the eggplant is out of the air fryer and transferred onto the plate, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste if desired, or brush each eggplant steak with your freshly made garlic parmesan butter. Bon Appetit! |
