Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Slice them thinly into chips, about 1/8 inch thick, using a mandolin slicer or a sharp knife.
Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 10 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help make them crispier.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (182°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried potato slices with olive oil, salt, paprika, and garlic powder. Toss until the potato slices are evenly coated.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Air fry the potato slices for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once done, remove the chips from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack. This will help them crisp up even further.
Serve the chips immediately while they are still warm and enjoy as a snack or a crunchy side dish.
