Oven Fried Potato Chips!
The perfect homemade chip does exist!
Servings: 6 cups
Ingredients
- 2 large russet baking potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp onion salt
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp chili powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes and thinly slice using a food processor, a mandolin, or the old fashioned way (as I do) with a sharp knife. Trying hard to get them as close as possible in size.
- After you have them sliced, Fill a medium- large bowl with water. Add the slices and let them soak for 20 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 400°
- After 20 minutes is up, drain the water. Lay out paper towels or a kitchen towel and place the slices on top. Make sure not to overlap.
- Top with paper or kitchen towels and pat dry.
- Lay out the slices on a baking sheet lined with foil and give it a spritz of cooking spray.
- Brush the potatoes with the olive oil.
- Pop em in the oven for 15 minutes. Then flip with tongs.
- Mix up the sugar, onion salt, paprika, garlic powder, and chili powder in a small bowl.
- After that this is the time where you really need to start watching the chips. Since they are all different sizes some with start to be ready before others. I set a bowl by the stove and keep close watch. Pull out any chips that are golden brown and put in the bowl.
- Continue cooking and checking on them. Some chips will have brown edge and be a little soft in the center... that's fine, pull those so they don't burn.
- Keep baking and pulling as they are ready to come out. A little tedious but worth the reward.
- After all the chips are done, toss with the seasoning. Try not to eat them all before you serve them!
- ENJOY!!!
