Description

How to make thinly sliced Baked Potato Slices perfectly seasoned and golden brown that are a delicious, easy side dish everyone will love.

Ingredients

Scale
  • The Foundation:
  • 2 lbs Russet potatoes, scrubbed and thinly sliced (1/8-inch thick)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Flavor Enhancers:
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Essential Seasonings:
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt (or Kosher salt)
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for a kick)
  • Finishing Touches:
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prep Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub Russet potatoes clean, then carefully slice them into 1/8-inch thick rounds. This thinness is key for truly crispy Baked Potato Slices. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Create Seasoning: In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, dried rosemary, sea salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). This creates your aromatic flavor base.
  3. Season Slices: Add the thinly sliced potatoes to the seasoning mixture. Toss gently but thoroughly, ensuring every single potato slice is beautifully coated. This uniform coating is crucial for achieving golden perfection on your Crispy Baked Potato Slices.
  4. Bake Potatoes: Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and wonderfully crispy. Don’t overcrowd the pan for best results.
  5. Add Fresh Herbs: Once baked to a perfect crisp, remove the Crispy Baked Potato Slices from the oven. Immediately sprinkle with the fresh chopped parsley and chives, tossing gently to distribute the vibrant flavors throughout the dish.
  6. Finish with Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the warm potato slices. The residual heat will slightly melt the cheese, adding a delicious savory finish. These Baked Potato Slices are almost ready to be enjoyed by everyone!
  7. Serve Warm: Transfer your perfectly Crispy Baked Potato Slices to a serving platter. Serve them immediately as a fantastic side dish. Enjoy the comforting aroma and delicious crunch of your homemade creation!

Notes

Slice potatoes truly 1/8-inch thin; this crucial step prevents soggy or undercooked slices, ensuring ultimate crispiness.

Store cooled Crispy Baked Potato Slices in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days to maintain freshness.

Russet potatoes are ideal for crispiness; however, Yukon Golds can be substituted for a slightly less crispy but still delicious result.

Serve Crispy Baked Potato Slices immediately while warm for optimal crunch; they pair perfectly with roasted chicken or a hearty burger.

For ultimate crispiness, soak potato slices in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning to remove excess starch.
