Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 3 seconds Olive oil spray
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Thoroughly wash the Russet potatoes to remove any dirt. Using a mandoline slicer or a very sharp knife, slice the potatoes into very thin rounds, about 1/16 inch thick.
Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help the chips become crispier.
Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they do not overlap.
Lightly spray the potato slices with olive oil spray. Rotate the sheets and spray again to ensure even coating.
Sprinkle the slices with salt, paprika, and garlic powder evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes. Then, rotate the baking sheets, and bake for another 10 minutes or until the chips are golden brown and crispy.
Keep a close watch towards the end of the baking time to prevent burning.
Once done, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes. This will help them crisp up further.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for a few days.
