Ingredients
  

For the Crisps
  • 1 package Refrigerated Tortellini Choose cheese or prosciutto-filled for best flavor
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Essential for avoiding stickiness
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Boosts aroma and flavor
  • 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning Infuses classic herb flavors
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Adjust to personal preference
  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese Opt for freshly grated
  • 1 spray Cooking Spray Prevents sticking in air fryer

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Directions
  1. Boil Water: Start by boiling a pot of water. Once it's bubbling, pour it over the refrigerated tortellini in a bowl. Let it sit for 3 minutes, then carefully drain the tortellini.
  2. Coat with Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tortellini with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss until every piece is evenly coated.
  3. Preheat Your Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F. Spray the basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  4. Arrange for Cooking: Lay the coated tortellini in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crisping. Look for a golden brown color!
  5. Keep Warm: If you’re making multiple batches, keep the cooked tortellini warm in an oven set to 200°F while you finish the others.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the crispy tortellini immediately with your favorite marinara or a creamy dipping sauce.

Notes

Optional: Sprinkle fresh herbs like parsley for added flavor and color.
