  • Author: amelia
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

These crispy pasta chips are a fun twist on traditional chips, offering a crunchy snack that’s perfect for satisfying your cravings. Ready in no time, they’re a great option for a quick snack or appetizer!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz uncooked pasta (rotini, bowtie, or any small pasta works)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • Optional: grated Parmesan cheese for topping


Instructions

  1. Cook the Pasta: Cook the pasta in salted boiling water according to package instructions, about 7-9 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.

  2. Season the Pasta: In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Make sure the pasta is evenly coated.

  3. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes.

  4. Air Fry the Pasta: Place the seasoned pasta in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the pasta is golden and crispy.

  5. Serve: Once done, remove from the air fryer and, if desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese for an extra burst of flavor.

  6. Enjoy: Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, like marinara or ranch, and enjoy your crispy pasta chips!

Notes

  • For extra flavor, try adding your favorite seasoning mix, such as Italian seasoning or crushed red pepper flakes.

  • If you prefer an even crispier result, increase the cook time by 1-2 minutes but be careful not to burn the chips.

  • These pasta chips are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.
