Ingredients
  

4 medium-sized Yukon Gold potatoes

4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

6 cloves of garlic, minced

1 teaspoon sea salt

1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary (optional for extra flavor)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will ensure they become crispy.

    Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, slice the potatoes into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. Place the slices in a bowl of cold water for about 10 minutes to remove excess starch, helping them crisp up better.

      Make the Garlic Oil: In a small bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried herbs (if using). Mix well until the ingredients are combined.

        Drain and Dry: After 10 minutes, drain the potato slices and lay them out on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Pat them dry to remove excess moisture.

          Coat the Potato Slices: Place the dried potato slices in a large mixing bowl. Pour the garlic oil mixture over the slices and toss gently to ensure they are evenly coated.

            Arrange on Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they don't overlap.

              Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through for even cooking. Keep an eye on them; you want them golden brown and crispy.

                Cool and Garnish: Once crispy and golden, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the potato slices cool for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

                  Serve: Enjoy your crispy garlic potato slices warm as a delicious snack or side dish. They’re perfect with dips like sour cream or aioli!
