Air Fryer Polenta Fries
Ingredients
1 package pre-cooked polenta
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for about 5 minutes to ensure it’s nice and hot for cooking.
While the air fryer is preheating, prepare the polenta. Slice the pre-cooked polenta into fries-like shapes, about 1/2 inch thick. You can adjust the thickness according to your preference.
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the oil.
Place the polenta fries in a large mixing bowl and drizzle the seasoned olive oil mixture over them. Gently toss the fries to ensure they are evenly coated with the seasoned oil.
Once the air fryer is preheated, arrange the polenta fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the polenta fries at 400°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time. Keep an eye on them to ensure they reach your desired level of crispiness without burning.
Once the polenta fries are golden brown and crispy on the outside, remove them from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving platter.
Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the hot fries.
Serve your Air Fryer Polenta Fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them as is!
