Warning: once you start, it’s hard to stop! Thankfully, these imitation crab stick chips are actually full of protein. Fun fact: they aren’t made of crab but fish. Enjoy them unseasoned as they are just as delicious once air fried. Depending on your air-fryer, my Actifryer takes 15 mins on 1 side and then additional 5 mins after flipping for the most satisfying crunch.
