Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 3 seconds Olive oil spray
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Thoroughly wash the Russet potatoes to remove any dirt. Using a mandoline slicer or a very sharp knife, slice the potatoes into very thin rounds, about 1/16 inch thick.
Step 3
Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help the chips become crispier.
Step 4
Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 5
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they do not overlap.
Step 6
Lightly spray the potato slices with olive oil spray. Rotate the sheets and spray again to ensure even coating.
Step 7
Sprinkle the slices with salt, paprika, and garlic powder evenly.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes. Then, rotate the baking sheets, and bake for another 10 minutes or until the chips are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Keep a close watch towards the end of the baking time to prevent burning.
Step 10
Once done, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes. This will help them crisp up further.
Step 11
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for a few days.
