Air Fryer Roasted Bell Peppers
Description
Air Fryer Roasted Bell Peppers requires slicing the tops off bell peppers and removing seeds by pulling out the stalk. The peppers are cut into medium to large chunks or strips and placed into the air fryer basket. They are cooked without oil at 180°C (360°F) for about 8 minutes to retain a warm, slightly crisp texture. For a more cooked, crispy texture, roasting for 10 minutes is recommended, while 12 minutes imparts a charred flavor similar to grilling.
The simple seasoning of thyme, salt, and black pepper enhances the natural sweetness and aroma of the peppers without overpowering. Because no oil is used during cooking, seasoning is best applied after roasting based on how you intend to serve them. This method offers a straightforward way to prepare colorful, tender roasted peppers suitable as a side or addition to dishes like salads or sandwiches.
Serving fresh and warm keeps the best texture. The flexibility in cooking time accommodates preferred crunch levels.
