Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 1 as needed Olive oil spray
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Optional seasonings (e.g., paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly. Thinly slice them into even rounds using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to ensure uniform cooking.
Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 5 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and makes the chips crispier.
Drain the potato slices and pat them completely dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Lightly spray the potato slices with olive oil spray. Sprinkle the salt and optional seasonings evenly over the top.
Bake the potato slices in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Keep a close eye to prevent burning, as cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the slices.
Once the chips are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Enjoy your Weight Watchers Potato Chips as a healthy snack!
