Ingredients
  

1 package (20-24) square wonton wrappers

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or cooking spray for a lighter option)

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon sea salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional, for a hint of smoky flavor)

Fresh herbs (such as parsley or cilantro) for garnishing (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Air Fryer: Begin by preheating your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Allow it to warm up for about 3 to 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.

    Prepare the Wonton Wrappers: Place the wonton wrappers flat on a clean cutting board. You can choose to cut them into triangles, strips, or any fun shapes you prefer. Ensure they are spread out to allow for easy coating.

      Coat the Wrappers: In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika (if using). Mix thoroughly to create a seasoning blend. Add the wonton wrappers to the bowl and toss gently until each piece is evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.

        Arrange in the Air Fryer: Place the coated wonton wrappers in a single layer in the air fryer basket. To guarantee they cook evenly and crisp up nicely, avoid overcrowding; you may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

          Air Fry the Chips: Cook the wonton wrappers at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 5 to 7 minutes. At the halfway mark, shake the basket gently to flip the chips, ensuring they brown evenly. Keep a close eye on them, as cooking times may vary with different air fryer models.

            Cool and Serve: Once the wonton chips are golden brown and crispy, carefully remove them from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack. This cooling process helps them maintain their delightful crunch. If desired, sprinkle fresh herbs over the chips for a vibrant touch.

              Enjoy: These crispy wonton chips are perfect for dipping! Serve them alongside your favorite dips like salsa, guacamole, or a creamy dipping sauce. Savor the delicious crunch and savory flavor!
