Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and peel the potatoes, if desired. Slice them into even 1/4-inch thick sticks to ensure they cook evenly.

Step 3

Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl and rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch. Drain and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 4

Return the dried potato slices to the bowl. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and toss to coat evenly.

Step 5

Sprinkle the potatoes with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika (if using). Toss again to make sure the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring none of the slices overlap for even crisping.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then use a spatula to flip the chips. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them near the end to prevent burning.

Step 8

Once done, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes on the baking sheet. This helps them crisp up further.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces, and enjoy your homemade oven chips!
