Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Chives
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin, even rounds about 1/8 inch thick.
Step 3
Place the potato slices in a large bowl and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 4
Drizzle the olive oil over the potato slices, then sprinkle with salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Toss well to ensure even coating.
Step 5
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they don't overlap for even cooking.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then flip each slice and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
Step 7
Remove the chips from the oven and immediately sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese. Let the residual heat melt the cheese slightly.
Step 8
Transfer the chips to a serving platter and garnish with chopped chives for a fresh, vibrant touch.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your 'Chips My Eye Variation' with your favorite dipping sauce or as-is!
