Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare potatoes:
Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly to ensure they bake uniformly.
Optional: soak slices in cold water for 15–20 minutes to remove excess starch and make them extra crispy. Pat dry thoroughly.
Season:
Toss the potato slices in olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
Arrange on baking sheet:
Lay the slices in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap.
Bake:
Bake for 20–25 minutes, flip the slices, and bake for another 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Serve:
Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and garnish with parsley or Parmesan if desired. Serve hot!
Tips:
For ultra-crispy slices, use a high-smoke-point oil like avocado or sunflower oil.
You can sprinkle a little smoked paprika or chili powder for a spicy twist.
These are great as a side to burgers, sandwiches, or with your favorite dipping sauce.
I can also give you a cheesy version where the potato slices get crispy and melty with cheese baked on top—it’s a real crowd-pleaser. Do you want me to share that?
