Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Slice the tempeh into very thin pieces, about 1/8 inch thick. The thinner the slices, the crispier the chips will be.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, ground black pepper, onion powder, and dried parsley. Stir well to create a seasoning blend.
Place the tempeh slices in a large bowl and drizzle the seasoned olive oil mixture over them. Toss gently to coat each slice evenly.
Arrange the seasoned tempeh slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Be sure they do not overlap to ensure even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, flip each slice, and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them in the final minutes to prevent burning.
Remove the tempeh chips from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. They will crisp up further as they cool.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. These chips are great on their own or as a topping for salads and soups.
