Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Scrub the Russet potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Leave the skins on for added texture and fiber.
Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin, uniform slices, about 1/8 inch thick.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let them soak for at least 10 minutes to remove excess starch, which will help them crisp up.
Drain the potatoes and spread them out on a clean kitchen towel. Pat them dry thoroughly to remove all moisture.
In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, ensuring each slice is evenly coated.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on two large baking sheets. Avoid overlapping them to ensure even cooking.
Sprinkle sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper evenly over the potato slices.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Then, rotate the baking sheets and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the chips are golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the chips from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes to crisp up further.
Once cooled, serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
