Ingredients
- 3 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two large 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 of cold water and let them soak for 10 minutes. This helps remove excess starch, ensuring crispier chips.
Step 4
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry completely using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, fresh thyme leaves, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Step 6
Spread the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Ensure none of the slices overlap to promote even cooking.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, then flip the chips over and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Keep an eye on the chips during the final minutes of baking, as they can go from perfectly crisp to burnt quickly.
Step 9
Once baked, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. They will become even crispier as they cool.
Step 10
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
