Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium parsnips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons paprika (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the parsnips. Using a vegetable peeler, peel the parsnips into long, thin ribbons.
Place the parsnip ribbons in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to evenly coat.
Sprinkle the ribbons with salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using). Toss again to distribute the seasonings.
Spread the seasoned parsnip ribbons out on the prepared baking sheets in a single layer, making sure they do not overlap.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, flipping the ribbons halfway through baking, until they are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning as they cook quickly.
Remove from the oven and let the parsnip ribbons cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet to allow them to crisp up further.
Serve immediately as a snack, or use as a garnish or crunchy topping for salads or soups.
