Air Fryer Roasted Chestnuts

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   {'id': 'step_0', 'step': 1, 'text': 'Preheat an air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).'}

2. 2

   {'id': 'step_1', 'step': 2, 'text': 'Bring a large pot of water to a boil; remove from heat.'}

3. 3

   {'id': 'step_2', 'step': 3, 'text': 'Wash and dry chestnuts. Place flat-side down on a cutting board. Using a paring knife, score a large "X" on rounded side, covering at least half of chestnut. Make sure the knife goes through outer skin and brown layer underneath. This will aid in peeling after roasting.'}

4. 4

   {'id': 'step_3', 'step': 4, 'text': 'Soak chestnuts in boiled water for 1 to 5 minutes, depending on size. Remove chestnuts with a slotted spoon and immediately transfer to the air fryer basket. Place 1 cup boiled water inside the basket.'}

5. 5

   {'id': 'step_4', 'step': 5, 'text': 'Cook in the preheated air fryer for 10 minutes. Shake well. Check to see if there is still water inside. If not, add another 1/2 cup. Continue cooking until shells have peeled away and exposed flesh has browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Cool until able to peel shells completely.'}
