Ingredients
  

Potatoes
  • 4 large large potatoes (russets preferred) Any type of potato can work.
Oils and Seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Can substitute with avocado oil or melted butter.
  • 1 teaspoon salt Sea salt or kosher salt can be used.
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper White pepper can be used as a substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder Fresh minced garlic (2-3 cloves) can be substituted.
  • 1 teaspoon paprika Can substitute with smoked paprika or chili powder.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly.
  2. Slice potatoes into about 1/4-inch thick slices for even baking.
  3. Toss the potato slices with olive oil and spices in a bowl, mixing well.
Cooking
  1. Arrange the sliced potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer, giving them space to ensure they don’t overlap.
  2. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for about 25–35 minutes until edges are golden and centers yield when poked.
  3. If desired, finish under the broiler for an additional minute for extra crispiness, watching closely.

Notes

You can slice and season them a few hours ahead, but keep them chilled and bring to room temperature before baking for the best texture. Leftovers can be reheated in an oven or air fryer for restored crispiness.
