Tips for Making Air Fryer Shishito Peppers
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer. Place the peppers in a single layer. This will ensure they get crispy on all sides and have that gorgeous blistered look!
- You don't need to toss halfway through cooking time.
- Add 1-2 additional minutes if the peppers aren't blackened enough to your liking.
- Serve with a squeeze of lemon or lime juice and a creamy vegan dip if you like.
- Store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
