Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the rutabagas and cut them into thin strips, reminiscent of french fries.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Add the rutabaga strips to the bowl and toss them well until fully coated in the spice mixture.
Spread the seasoned rutabaga strips evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer for even cooking.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the strips halfway through, until they are golden and crispy.
Once cooked, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool slightly for maximum crispiness.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a nutritious snack and enjoy your low-carb Peri Peri Chips!
