A bowl of crispy potato and sweet potato chips

Ingredients

  • 1 lb

    red or russet potatoes

  • 3 tbsp

    water

  • 1 tbsp

    canola (or other unflavored) oil


  • 1 tsp

    coarse salt

Directions

  1. This method works for both types of potatoes:
  2. Peel potatoes and slice 1/8inch thick (a mandolin slicer makes this easy).
  3. Place potatoes in single layer on rimmed cookie sheet.
  4. In a small cup, mix True Lime or True Orange (depending upon potato as indicated above) with water and drizzle over potatoes, turning slices once to coat both sides.
  5. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  6. Drain potatoes well and pat dry.
  7. Place potatoes, oil, and salt in a medium mixing bowl and toss to coat. Spread in a single layer on a non-stick cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
  8. Rotate sheet 180 degrees (half way around) and bake for 10 minutes longer or until crisp.
