Ingredients

  • 6 uncooked lasagna noodles
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil +more for drizzling
  • ½ cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles to the boiling water. Stir the lasagna noodles around so they do not stick together. 
  • Cook the lasagna noodles until they are al dente. Strain the pasta and rinse them with cold water. 
  • Lay the cooked lasagna noodles out onto a paper towel and pat them dry. Drizzle the noodles with olive oil so they don’t stick to the paper towel and set them aside. 
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400ºF and spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray. 
  • Next, add the parmesan, thyme, rosemary, basil, garlic, red pepper flakes and salt  to a large bowl and mix until combined. 
  • Use kitchen shears to cut the lasagna noodles into 2-inch pieces. Then, add the lasagna noodles into the bowl with the cheese and spices. 
  • Toss the noodles together with the cheese and spices until coated.
  • Layer the air fryer basket with the noodle pieces. It’s okay if they are touching and slightly overlapping as you’ll be cooking these in 3 to 4 batches. Drizzle the noodles with ½ tablespoon of olive oil. 
  • Cook the lasagna noodles for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, shake the air fryer basket to mix the noodles around and then cook the noodles for another 3 minutes. If the noodles are golden brown, they are done. If your noodles are still a pale beige color, cook the noodles 1 minute at a time until they turn into golden brown chips. 
  • Remove the noodles from the basket and repeat steps 8-9 until all of the noodles are cooked. How many batches are needed varies depending on the size of your air fryer. 
  • Serve the lasagna pasta noodles with this lasagna dip or any other dip of your choice. 

Tips & Notes

  • You can use other dried pasta in place of the lasagna noodles. We recommend using 2-3 cups of rigatoni or bowtie pasta.
