Pasta Chips Recipe

In how many ways have you tried to cook or prepare your pasta? As a pasta salad, as a pie (read, spaghetti pie), slow cooked in your choice of sauce, or event deep-fried as fritters? But did you know that there exists a recipe that can magically transform the boiled food into crispy chips? Nope, these are not pasta-flavored chips but actual pasta fried as chips!

Instructions

1. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain the pasta.
2. In a large, deep skillet, pour about ½” vegetable oil and heat over medium. When the oil is shimmering, add about 1 cup al dente pasta and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels
3. Season immediately with some Italian seasoning, garlic powder, parmesan, salt and pepper. Repeat, working in batches, with the rest of the pasta.
