Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
1. Wash and peel the potatoes. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes thinly and evenly, about 1/8-inch thick.
2. Soak the sliced potatoes in a large bowl of cold water for 10 minutes; this removes excess starch and helps the chips become crispier.
3. Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels. Ensuring they are dry will help them crisp better.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, ground black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Add the potato slices to this mixture and toss until they are evenly coated.
5. Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (180°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
6. Place the potato slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overlapping. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
7. Cook the chips in the air fryer for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crisping. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
8. Once the chips are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and place them on a cooling rack or paper towels to cool and further crisp up.
9. Repeat with remaining potato slices if needed.
10. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to two days. Enjoy your homemade crispy chips without any nuts!
