Crispy Air Fryer Onions: Savor Flavor in Just 15 Minutes


  • Author: ushinzomr
  • Total Time: 20
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced onions, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the onions are evenly coated.
  3. Place the seasoned onions in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  4. Air fry the onions for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
  5. Once the onions are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and place them on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, try adding a splash of balsamic vinegar or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
  • Store leftover crispy onions in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
