Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Apple (such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 1 teaspoon Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Core the apples and slice them into thin, even wedges (about 8-10 slices per apple).
In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and sea salt until well combined.
Drizzle the apple slices with the extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the slices evenly.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the apple slices, ensuring each slice gets a nice layer of seasoning. Use your fingers or gently toss the slices to distribute the spices evenly.
Arrange the seasoned apple slices on a serving plate. Optionally, garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and added Mediterranean flair.
Serve immediately as a snack or appetizer. Enjoy the sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors!
