Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the beets. Using a mandoline slicer, slice the beets into very thin, even slices (about 1/16 inch thick).
In a large bowl, toss the beet slices with olive oil, making sure each slice is lightly coated. Sprinkle with sea salt, ground black pepper, and optional herbs, if using. Toss again to ensure even distribution.
Arrange the beet slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they do not overlap to allow them to crisp up properly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then rotate the trays and bake for another 20-30 minutes. Keep a close eye on the chips during the last 10-15 minutes, as they can burn quickly once fully dried.
Remove from the oven and let the beet chips cool on the baking sheets; they will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
