Ingredients
For the Pasta Chips
-
8 ounces pasta (about 2 cups)
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
-
1 teaspoon kosher salt
For the Creamy Herb Vinegar Dip
-
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
-
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
-
1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package directions.
Cook until al dente, meaning the pasta is tender but still firm to the bite.
Drain thoroughly.
2. Season the Pasta
Return the cooked pasta to the pot or place it in a large mixing bowl.
Add the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and kosher salt.
Stir well until the pasta is evenly coated.
3. Air Fry the Pasta Chips
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F if your model requires preheating.
Arrange the seasoned pasta in the air fryer basket in a single layer, working in batches if necessary.
Air fry for 15–20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to help the pasta crisp evenly.
Check toward the end of cooking and continue until the pasta is golden and crunchy.
4. Make the Creamy Herb Vinegar Dip
While the pasta chips cook, add the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, salt, chopped chives, and chopped dill to a small bowl.
Whisk until smooth and evenly combined.
5. Serve
Transfer the crispy pasta chips to a serving bowl.
Serve warm or at room temperature with the creamy herb vinegar dip on the side.
Notes
-
Cook the pasta al dente: Firm pasta holds its shape better during air frying.
-
Drain thoroughly: Excess water can prevent the pasta from crisping.
-
Arrange in a single layer: Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket so hot air can circulate.
-
Shake halfway through: This helps the pasta cook more evenly.
-
Check for crispness: Air fryer models vary, so check the pasta near the end of cooking and add time if needed.
-
Adjust the tang: Add a little more apple cider vinegar to the dip if you prefer a sharper flavor.
-
Serve the dip separately: Keeping the pasta chips away from the yogurt dip helps them stay crunchy.
