Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh kale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and thoroughly dry the kale leaves. Remove the stems and tough center ribs from each leaf, then tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
Place the kale pieces into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and toss gently until all leaves are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the sea salt, garlic powder, and smoked paprika over the oiled kale. Toss again to distribute the seasonings evenly throughout the leaves.
Arrange the kale pieces in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, being careful not to overcrowd them to ensure even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and lightly golden. Check halfway through and adjust the pieces if necessary to ensure even crisping.
Remove from the oven and let the kale chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving. They will crisp up further as they cool.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to two days to maintain their crispiness.
