Looking for a fun and tasty snack that’s easy to prepare? Try these Crispy Farfalle Chips! With just a few simple ingredients and an air fryer, you can create a delicious, crispy treat perfect for any occasion. Let’s dive into the recipe.
Ingredients
- 8 oz farfalle pasta
- 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce, for dipping
Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Pasta
Cook farfalle pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain without rinsing to retain some of the pasta starch, which helps the seasoning adhere better.
Step 2: Season the Pasta
Transfer the cooked pasta to a large bowl. Add olive oil, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and sea salt. Toss until all the pasta is evenly coated.
Step 3: Air Fry the Pasta
Place the seasoned pasta in a single layer in the air fryer. Set the air fryer to 400°F and cook for 10 minutes or until the pasta is golden brown and crispy. Shake the basket once or twice during cooking to ensure even crispiness. If necessary, cook in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Remove the pasta chips from the air fryer, let them cool, and serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
Quick Tips
- Batch Cooking: If you have a smaller air fryer, cook the pasta in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
- Seasoning Variations: Feel free to experiment with different seasonings like paprika, cayenne pepper, or nutritional yeast for a unique twist.
- Serving Suggestions: These chips are perfect on their own or paired with your favorite dip, such as marinara, ranch, or even guacamole.
