Ingredients
  

For the Chips
  • 2 cups Rigatoni or Farfalle Pasta Use sturdy shapes, feel free to swap in chickpea or gluten-free pasta.
  • 2 tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil Avocado oil can be used as a substitute.
  • 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning Substitute with your favorite herbs, if desired.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Air Fryer Pasta Chips
  1. Start by boiling a large pot of salted water. Once boiling, add your rigatoni or farfalle pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a mixing bowl to cool slightly while preheating the air fryer.
  2. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for even cooking. A few minutes of preheating will help get that perfect crunch.
  3. Drizzle the cooked pasta with olive oil, sprinkle in Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and grated parmesan cheese. Toss until fully coated.
  4. Add the coated pasta to the preheated air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10-14 minutes, shaking halfway through at the 6-minute mark.
  5. Once crispy and golden, remove from the air fryer. Serve immediately, garnished with extra parmesan and parsley if desired.
