Main Ingredients

  • 12 pieces pepperoncini peppers whole, pickled, drained
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions
 

  • Preheat air fryer to 390°F. Pat the drained pepperoncini peppers completely dry with paper towels to ensure they crisp up.
  • In a small bowl, toss the peppers with olive oil, garlic powder, and dried oregano until evenly coated.
  • Arrange the seasoned peppers in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don't overlap for even cooking.
  • Air fry for 6-8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the skins are blistered and crispy.
  • Serve immediately while hot for the best crunch and tangy flavor.
