# What You’ll Need:
→ Pasta
01 - 9 oz short pasta (penne, rigatoni, or farfalle)
→ Seasonings
02 - 2 tbsp olive oil
03 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
04 - 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

→ Cheese
08 - 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
# How To Make:
01 - Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta until just al dente per package instructions. Drain thoroughly and pat dry with a clean towel to remove excess moisture.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
03 - Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the pasta mixture and toss again to distribute evenly.
04 - Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Arrange the pasta in a single layer in the basket, working in batches if necessary.
05 - Air fry for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the pasta chips are crisp and golden.
06 - Allow the pasta chips to cool slightly before serving. Pair with preferred dips such as marinara or pesto.
