Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 370 degrees F (190 degrees C). Allow to preheat for 2 minutes. Spray a 7-inch springform pan with cooking spray.

Step 2

Place Tater Tots® into the air fryer basket and bake for 15 minutes, shaking basket halfway.

Step 3

Meanwhile, cook bacon pieces in a small skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Add chorizo and celery slices. Saute for about 3 minutes. Drain excess grease.

Step 4

Transfer Tater Tots® to a bowl and pour bacon-chorizo mixture on top. Mix in water, egg, and garlic base; stir to thoroughly coat. Fill into prepared springform pan.

Step 5

Reduce temperature of air fryer to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). Add springform pan to the air fryer and cook for 7 minutes until dressing is cooked through. If dressing doesn't look done, cook an additional 3 minutes.
