Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 ¼ pounds (567 grams) russet potatoes, scrubbed, dried, and cut into 1-inch pieces
Seasonings:
- 1 ½ teaspoons seasoned salt
- ¾ teaspoon paprika
- ¾ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
Cooking Ingredient:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Transform 1-inch potato chunks into a flavor-packed mixture by thoroughly coating them with 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) of olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons (7.5 milliliters) of seasoned salt, 3/4 teaspoon (3.75 milliliters) of paprika, and 3/4 teaspoon (3.75 milliliters) of dried Italian seasoning in a spacious mixing bowl.
- Activate the air fryer and set the temperature to 400°F (204°C), allowing it to preheat for approximately 2 minutes to create an optimal cooking environment.
- Carefully distribute the seasoned potato pieces inside the air fryer basket, ensuring they are arranged in a single, uncrowded layer that permits uniform heat circulation and crispy development.
- Initiate the cooking process by placing the basket in the air fryer and allowing the potatoes to roast for 10 minutes, which will begin the exterior crisping process.
- Extract the basket midway through cooking and vigorously shake it, rotating the potato pieces to promote even browning and prevent sticking.
- Return the basket to the air fryer and continue cooking for an additional 8 to 10 minutes, monitoring the potatoes until they achieve a golden-brown exterior and a tender, soft interior.
- Immediately transfer the crispy potatoes to a serving dish, presenting them while they maintain maximum temperature and textural integrity for an exceptional dining experience.
Notes
- Leftovers regain their crispy texture when reheated in the air fryer for a quick 2-3 minutes, making meal prep a breeze.
- Waxy potato varieties like Yukon Gold or red potatoes maintain their structure perfectly during high-heat cooking, ensuring ideal results.
- An air fryer transforms potato chunks into a lightning-fast dish, delivering restaurant-quality crunch in less than 20 minutes total.
- Customize your seasoning blend to match meal themes or personal tastes, creating a versatile side that adapts to any main course.
- Shaking the basket midway prevents sticking and guarantees uniform golden-brown exteriors with irresistibly fluffy interiors.
- Serving immediately locks in maximum crispiness, presenting a mouthwatering side that elevates any dining experience with minimal cooking effort.
