Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb sweet potatoes scrubbed; skin on
  • 1.5 tbsp olive oil extra-virgin
  • 0.75 tsp fine sea salt
  • 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper freshly ground

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Set two racks in the upper and lower thirds.
  • Line two large baking sheets with parchment for easy release.
  • Slice the sweet potatoes very thin, about 1/16–1/8 inch, using a mandoline or sharp knife.
  • Soak slices in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch.
  • Drain and pat the slices completely dry with clean towels.
  • Toss slices with olive oil, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  • Arrange in a single layer on the prepared sheets without overlapping.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then rotate pans and flip each slice. Bake 12–15 minutes more until edges curl and centers are dry.
  • Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let chips sit 5 minutes to finish crisping. Cool on the pans.

Notes

Variation: Sprinkle chips with chili-lime seasoning or cinnamon sugar right after baking. For extra tang, mist with a touch of apple cider vinegar while warm.
Storage: Keep fully cooled chips in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days. Re-crisp on a sheet pan at 300°F for 3–5 minutes if needed.
