Time 40m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups uncooked rotini pasta (6 ounces)
Vegetable oil
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Cook and drain pasta as directed on package. Rinse with cold water; drain very thoroughly (excess water on pasta will cause oil to spatter).
  • Heat oil (1 inch) to 375°. Fry pasta, about 1 cup at a time, about 2 minutes or until crisp and light golden brown; stirring if necessary to separate. Drain on paper towels. Mix remaining ingredients in large bowl; toss with pasta until evenly coated.
