Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes as thinly as possible, roughly 1/16 inch thick.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl and fill with cold water. Let them soak for at least 5 minutes. Drain the slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the baking sheets, ensuring none of them overlap.
Lightly spray the potato slices with olive oil spray. Flip them over and spray the other side.
Sprinkle the potato slices evenly with salt, paprika, and black pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes; then rotate the baking sheets and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the slices are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before serving.
Serve immediately or allow to cool completely and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
