Description
Perfectly Crispy Baked Potato Chips are a healthier alternative to traditional fried chips, easy to make, and packed with flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Freshly cracked black pepper to taste
- Optional: Fresh herbs for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly, then slice them very thinly (about 1/8 inch thick).
- Soak the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes.
- Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Toss the dried potato slices with olive oil, sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper in a large bowl.
- Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the chips halfway through the baking time.
- Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
- Use russet potatoes for the best results.
- Ensure potato slices are uniform in thickness for even cooking.
- Soaking the slices is crucial for crispiness.
- Monitor the chips closely while baking to prevent burning.
