Crunchy Air-Fried Jalapeno Slices

Description

I first had these at a restaurant inside a casino in Tulsa, OK and it was love at first bite. I got to craving them the other day but didn’t want the guilt of the deep-fry. I whipped up a batch in the air fryer and they turned out crispier than the deep-fried version. Don’t forget the ranch!

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups panko bread crumbs
  • 1 ½ cups pickled jalapeno pepper slices, drained
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 cup ranch salad dressing

Instructions

  4. then in egg
  5. and finally in the bread crumb mixture.
