Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the Russet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Optionally, peel the potatoes if you prefer skinless chips.

Step 3

Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into thin, even rounds approximately 1/8-inch thick.

Step 4

Place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for 10 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps achieve crispier chips.

Step 5

Drain the potato slices and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil until they are evenly coated.

Step 7

Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Make sure they do not overlap to allow even cooking.

Step 8

Sprinkle the potato slices with salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using) for extra flavor.

Step 9

Bake the chips in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then carefully flip them over using tongs or a spatula.

Step 10

Continue baking for another 8-10 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye on them during the last few minutes to avoid burning.

Step 11

Remove the baked potato chips from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes to crisp up fully.

Step 12

Serve immediately as a snack or side dish. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
