Ingredients
2 large russet potatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
1. Wash and scrub the potatoes well, then slice them into very thin rounds, about 1/16 inch thick.
2. Place the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water and soak them for 20 to 30 minutes.
3. Drain the potatoes and pat them completely dry with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel.
4. Transfer the dry potato slices to a bowl and toss them with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper.
5. Arrange the potato slices in the air fryer basket in as close to a single layer as possible.
6. Air fry at 325°F for 12 to 16 minutes, flipping or shaking the basket every 4 to 5 minutes until the chips are golden and crisp.
7. Remove the chips, let them cool slightly, then sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
Notes
Do not skip drying the potato slices really well, because extra moisture is the biggest reason homemade chips turn soft instead of crisp.
