Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the carrots. Using a mandoline slicer or sharp knife, slice the carrots into very thin rounds, about 1/16 inch thick.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced carrots with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss until the carrots are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Spread the carrot slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Make sure they are not overlapping to ensure even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, then rotate the trays and flip the carrot chips over carefully using tongs or a spatula.
Continue baking for an additional 10-13 minutes. Keep a close eye on them in the last few minutes to prevent burning, as they can go from crispy to burnt quickly.
Once they are golden brown and crispy, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes. This will help them crisp up further.
Serve immediately for best texture, or store in an airtight container once completely cooled for up to 3 days.
