Ingredients
  

  • 1 package 9 ounces tortellini (refrigerated, frozen, or shelf-stable, any flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

  • Boil a large pot of salted water and cook the tortellini according to the package instructions. Once cooked, strain the tortellini and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 340°F.
  • In the mixing bowl with the tortellini, add olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and parmesan cheese. Toss until the tortellini are evenly coated.
  • Place the seasoned tortellini in the preheated air fryer basket and cook for 7-11 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy. Shake the basket at the 5-minute mark for even cooking.
  • Once done, garnish with extra parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Serve as a delightful side dish or appetizer with marinara sauce or pesto for dipping.
