Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Potato peels (from russet, Yukon gold, or red potatoes)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Gather the potato peels from recently washed potatoes. Ensure they are clean and free of dirt or blemishes.
Place the potato peels in a mixing bowl and drizzle them with olive oil. Toss to coat the peels evenly.
Add the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss again until the seasonings are well distributed.
Spread the seasoned potato peels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even cooking.
Roast in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, flipping the peels halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the peels from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. For added flavor and color, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately as a snack, appetizer, or side dish. Enjoy your crispy roasted potato peels!
