Ingredients:
- Mini sweet peppers
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Optional seasonings (such as garlic powder, paprika, or herbs)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Wash the mini peppers thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Toss the peppers in a bowl with a drizzle of olive oil, just enough to coat them lightly. You can use a brush to evenly distribute the oil.
- Season the peppers with a pinch of salt and pepper, and any other seasonings you prefer. Common additions include garlic powder, paprika, or dried herbs for added flavor.
- Place the mini peppers in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches if your air fryer is small.
- Air fry the peppers for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket or flipping the peppers halfway through the cooking time to ensure they cook evenly. The exact time may vary depending on your air fryer’s model and size, so keep an eye on them.
- The mini peppers are done when they are tender and slightly blistered, with a charred appearance.
- Remove the peppers from the air fryer, let them cool for a minute, and then serve them hot.
- Enjoy your air-fried mini peppers as a snack, side dish, or as a complement to other dishes. They’re great for dipping in sauces like hummus or tzatziki.
