Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the rutabagas, then cut them into thick, chunky strips resembling traditional chunky chips or thick fries.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Toss the rutabaga strips in the seasoned oil until they are well-coated.
Arrange the rutabaga strips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they have space to crisp up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then gently flip the chips to ensure even cooking.
Continue baking for an additional 20 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the tray from the oven and sprinkle the chips with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve immediately as a side dish or snack, enjoying their low carb goodness!
