Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized parsnips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the parsnips. Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the parsnips into thin, even rounds, about 1/8-inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced parsnips, olive oil, sea salt, ground black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Toss well to evenly coat the parsnips with the seasonings.
Arrange the parsnip slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they do not overlap to allow for even cooking.
Bake the parsnips in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye on them during the last few minutes to prevent burning.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the chips cool for 5 minutes. The chips will crisp up further as they cool.
Serve immediately as a snack or side dish. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
