Ingredients
- 16 oz of your favorite bite size pasta I chose rigatoni
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- ½ tablespoon of garlic powder
- ½ tablespoon of Italian seasoning
- ½ cup of grated parmesan
Instructions
- Cook pasta as per the instructions on the package. After cooking, ensure it's well-drained.
- In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the cooked pasta with olive oil. Follow up by adding the grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder for the seasoning.
- Spread the seasoned pasta in a single layer on the air fryer basket or rack, ensuring they do not overlap too much for even cooking.
- Set the air fryer and cook until the pasta chips attain crispy perfection.
Notes
- When working with an air fryer, you must remember never to overlap food. Otherwise, it will have an inconsistent texture. The pasta has to be in a single layer, making sure it doesn’t touch.
- Then all air fryers heat slightly differently, so you will remove the pasta once it is crunchy and golden in color.
- You can make this recipe in an air fryer oven or one with a basket. If you use a basket-style air fryer, just batch cook the pasta. Basket air fryers can’t hold as much as an air fryer oven.
