Ingredients
1 bunch fresh mustard greens
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
salt to taste
Directions
Preheat oven to 375°F. Rinse the mustard greens thoroughly under cold water and pat completely dry with paper towels—removing moisture is essential for achieving crispiness.
Remove the thick center ribs from each leaf by gently folding the leaf in half and slicing along the rib with a sharp knife. Discard ribs and keep the tender leaf portions.
Tear the leafy portions into chip-sized pieces, roughly 2 to 3 inches. Place in a large bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the mustard green pieces and toss gently to coat all surfaces lightly.
Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning and salt over the oiled greens. Toss again until all pieces are evenly seasoned.
Spread the seasoned greens in a single layer across two large baking sheets, avoiding overlap where possible.
Roast in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking the pans halfway through cooking, until the edges are darkened and the greens are completely crispy throughout.
Remove from oven and let cool for 1 to 2 minutes on the baking sheet. Transfer to a serving plate and enjoy immediately while still crisp.
