Start by washing the peppers and patting them dry. Then, chop each pepper up according to how you intend to use them. They can be chopped up into bite-sized chunks or halved or quartered.

oiling peppers

Spray or drizzle the peppers with oil, ensuring they are covered evenly. Sprinkle a little seasoning over them and transfer them to the air fryer basket.

Cook the peppers at 200°C for 10 to 12 minutes. Shake the peppers a few times to ensure they all get cooked evenly and to check they are not burning.

The peppers might be ready in a shorter or longer time, depending on what size the peppers have been chopped to.

The peppers are ready when they are softened and beginning to brown at the edges.
