Preparation
- In a small bowl, stir together the smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and brown sugar until evenly combined.
- In a medium bowl, toss the warm pasta with the avocado oil and half of the spice mixture, stirring to coat evenly.
- Preheat the air fryer to 390˚F (200°F) for 5 minutes.
- Add the pasta to the air fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes, tossing every 2–3 minutes and watching carefully to avoid burning, until the pasta is beginning to brown and crisp.
- Return the pasta chips to the same medium bowl and toss with the remaining spice mixture until well coated. Let the pasta chips cool slightly, about 5 minutes. The chips will continue to crisp up as they cool.
- Serve the pasta chips with French onion dip.
- Enjoy!
