8ouncesleg style imitation crab
olive oil
salt
pepper
Instructions
Carefully unroll each “crab leg” into a thin sheet (just do a little feeling, and you’ll find the seam to unroll them).
Cut the sheets into about one-fourth-inch strips and place them in a bowl.
Once the crab is all sliced, drizzle on some olive oil (you want just enough to give each strip a very light coating) and sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste. Mix the strips to evenly coat them in oil and seasoning.
Preheat your air fryer to 320 degrees and place a single layer of strips in the basket (you may need to do several batches). Fry for 15 minutes, stirring once during cooking.
Once the strips are browned and crispy, remove them from the air fryer. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
