Gochujang Flavored Pasta Chips! This is my spin on the Viral TikTok Trend! So easy to make! They can be made faster in your air fryer but an oven works too!
Yes, we are here with yet another viral TikTok food trend. These pasta chips are definitely worth trying, and like the tortilla hack, are easily customizable with the flavoring and which pasta you use. Any small shaped pasta you can pick up with your hands will work: penne, rigatoni, bowtie, etc.
I loved using rigatoni because I love the tube like shape of the “chips”. So fun to eat and easy to dip!
Gochujang Flavored Pasta Chips
The original version just uses olive oil, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, and salt and pepper. I saw a version using Frank’s Red Hot Sauce and knew I had to try my own version using Korean Gochujang, hot pepper paste. If you love Korean food, you know what is condiment is. I have used gochujang countless times in my Korean food recipes, as it is a staple in Korean food cooking. It adds heat, great flavor and a very subtle sweetness, to any dish.

Gochujang Flavored Pasta Chips
Equipment
- Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. rigatoni pasta
- 1/4 cup Korean gochujang + more if desired
- 1 tablespoon Ranch dressing
- 1/2 teaspoon honey + more if desired
- parmesan cheese
For the dipping sauce:
- 1/4 cup Korean gochujang
- 1 tablespoon Ranch dressing
- honey to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta to al dente according to package instructions. If using rigatoni pasta, this will take about 11 to 12 minutes. Drain and place into a large mixing bowl.
- Add in the gochujang, Ranch dressing, honey and parmesan cheese and toss to coat. Place into your air fryer and air fry at 400°F for about 10 to 12 minutes, tossing halfway through. If you have the air fryer that I have, see video, I tossed and rotated the trays halfway through.
- For the dipping sauce: whisk together the ingredients. Taste and adjust any ingredients as needed. Serve and enjoy with the Gochujang flavored pasta chips!
Sad that these were not great. The flavor was good but They did not crisp up as there was too much liquid.
Did you use your air fryer?
