Crispy Salty Treat Chips (Printable)
Golden-baked potato slices seasoned with olive oil, sea salt, and smoked paprika for ultimate crunch.
# What You'll Need:
→ Potatoes
01 - 3 large russet potatoes, scrubbed
→ Seasoning
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
04 - ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
05 - ¼ teaspoon black pepper
# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
02 - Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the potatoes very thinly, about 1/16 inch thick.
03 - Place potato slices in a large bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, smoked paprika, and black pepper until evenly coated.
04 - Arrange slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they do not overlap.
05 - Bake for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp. Watch closely to prevent burning.
06 - Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. They will crisp up further as they cool. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container once completely cool.
