Crunchy Air-Fried Jalapeno Slices

  5.0 – 2 reviews  

It was love at first bite when I first tried these in a restaurant inside a casino in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The other day, I started to crave them, but I didn’t want to feel bad about not deep-frying them. They came out crispier than the deep-fried equivalent after I quickly prepared a batch in the air fryer. Remember to visit the ranch!

I add Ranch Dressing Seasoning sometimes, onion powder or salt, and garlic powder if I have bread crumbs that are unseasoned. Add whatever seasons you want!
