Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add your rigatoni or farfalle and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.

While the pasta cools slightly, preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.

Drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil over the hot pasta. Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and grated parmesan cheese. Toss everything together gently.

Carefully place the seasoned pasta in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 380°F for 10-14 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.

Once golden brown and crispy, remove from the fryer, let cool for a minute, and serve immediately with extra parmesan and chopped fresh parsley.
