Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash and dry the okra thoroughly. Trim the stems and cut the okra into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch in length.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Add the cut okra to the bowl and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss the okra until it is evenly coated with oil and spices.

Step 5

Spread the okra in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the pieces are not overcrowded.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through, until the okra is crispy and golden brown.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy as a healthy snack or a side dish.
