Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Medium Potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold)
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried Oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt as the skin will be left on.
Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into 1/8-inch thick rounds. Thin slices ensure crispiness.
Place the potato slices in a bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps in achieving crispier chips.
After soaking, drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a kitchen towel, ensuring they are as dry as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, dried oregano, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir to mix the seasonings evenly.
Add the dried potato slices to the bowl with the seasoning mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Preheat the air fryer to 360°F (182°C) for about 3 minutes.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Try not to overlap them too much to allow even cooking.
Air fry the potato slices in batches, if necessary, for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
Keep an eye on the chips during the last few minutes to prevent over-browning.
Once crispy and golden brown, transfer the chips to a serving bowl and let them cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Crispy Air Fryer Chips as a healthy snack or side dish!
