Roasted Jalapeños (Oven and Air Fryer Instructions)
Roasted jalapeños are great served with chicken, fish, over tacos, in sandwiches. Stir them into soup, chili, creamy dips, and many other recipes. Read below for air fryer and oven instructions for making blistered jalapeños.
Wear disposable kitchen gloves. Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise. Use a knife to carefully separate the pith from the inside of the jalapeños. Scoop out the pith and seeds. Rinse the jalapeños to remove the seeds, if needed.Remove the stem if you plan on using the jalapeños in other recipes instead of eating them on their own.
Oven roasted jalapeños
Preheat oven to 375F. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil, arrange the halved cleaned-out jalapeños on the baking sheet and spray lightly with olive oil. Roast at 375F for 25-30 minutes or until they are cooked to your liking, flipping halfway through.
Air fryer roasted jalapeños
If your air fryer requires preheating, preheat to 350F. Place the halved cleaned-out jalapeños on your air fryer basket or pan. Air fry for 8-12 minutes at 350F, or until they are cooked to your liking, flipping halfway through.All air fryers cook differently so make sure to check on the jalapeños before the cook time is up to make sure they're not burning or turning too black.
Notes
Try roasting other veggies at the same time, such as sweet bell pepper slices, sliced zucchini, broccoli florets, or butternut squash.
