Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Peel the rutabaga and slice it into thin chips, roughly 1/4 inch thick to ensure they cook evenly.
Place the sliced rutabaga in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat all the slices thoroughly.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the rutabaga slices, ensuring even coverage, and toss again to coat.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread out the seasoned rutabaga slices in a single layer to ensure crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then flip the slices and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly to enhance their crisp texture.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
