Instructions
Oven roasting:
Preheat oven to 425° F.
Combine lentils with oil and chipotle in a medium bowl, and toss gently to combine. Place coated lentils in a cast iron skillet or on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, and roast at 425° F until lightly crisp, about 20 minutes.
Air fryer roasting:
Preheat air fryer to 400° F.
Combine lentils with oil and chipotle in a medium bowl, and toss gently to combine. Spread coated lentils on a small sheet of aluminum foil, and fold up the sides of the foil to create a tray. You may need to cook these in batches depending on how large your air fryer is.
Roast at 400° F until lightly crisp, about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through.
