Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. You can choose to leave the peel on if you prefer extra fiber and texture.
Step 3
Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin, even rounds about 1/8 inch thick.
Step 4
Place the potato slices in a large bowl filled with cold water. Let them soak for 5-10 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps achieve maximum crispiness.
Step 5
Drain the potato slices and pat them dry thoroughly using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 6
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, black pepper, sea salt, paprika, and garlic powder. Toss the potato slices in the oil mixture until they are evenly coated.
Step 7
Arrange the coated potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Make sure they are not overlapping to ensure even cooking.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the chips halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Once done, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheets before serving.
Step 10
Enjoy these heart-healthy chips as a snack or a side dish with your favorite dip!
