Crispy Ranch Potatoes (Air Fryer Recipe)
Crispy ranch potatoes are a 3 ingredient air fryer recipe that makes an easy side dish that pairs well with any meal. Everyone will love these flavorful, crispy but fluffy potatoes!
I know potatoes are generally a good bet to serve.
It doesn’t matter if I’m making a side for my family, entertaining, or bringing a dish to a party.
There’s always a potato for that.
And these crispy ranch potatoes are one of my favorite versions of potatoes!
They only need 3 ingredients you probably already have on hand, but the ranch seasoning adds so much flavor that they taste like you put in way more effort than you actually did.
And the air fryer takes the cook time and cuts it down to under 20 minutes.
So you’ve got bold, flavorful potatoes with a perfectly crisp exterior and a soft, fluffy inside on table anytime.
Which is a really good thing since everyone loves them and they pair well with anything from chicken to pork chops.
Ingredients
To make these you’ll need:
- Baby potatoes– You could also use new potatoes. Baby red potatoes will also work.
- Olive oil– Extra virgin
- Ranch dressing mix– A 1 ounce packet of your favorite variety.
How to Make
These air fryer crispy ranch potatoes are so easy!
Start by washing the potatoes well and pat them dry.
Cut the washed potatoes into quarters and put them into a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil out over them and toss the potatoes to coat them.
Then season them with the ranch mix and toss them again to coat them.
Spread the seasoned potatoes out in an even layer in the basket of your air fryer.
Air fry the potatoes at 400 degrees for 18-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
Serve warm and enjoy!
