Air Fryer Vegetables
Description
The recipe uses red bell pepper, mushrooms, and zucchini cut into even pieces and combined with minced garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. The vegetables are arranged in a single layer in an air fryer preheated to 380°F. They cook first for 6 minutes, then are tossed and sprinkled with parmesan cheese, before cooking an additional 3 to 5 minutes until tender crisp.
Air frying allows the vegetables to retain a pleasing texture without becoming soggy, with slight caramelization and enhanced flavors from the seasoning. The parmesan cheese added near the end creates a mild crust and a subtle umami note.
This straightforward preparation suits quick vegetable sides for a variety of dishes or can be adapted with other vegetables or seasoning blends based on preference. The timing is short enough for weeknight meals.
