Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and peel them, keeping the skins aside. Save the peeled potatoes for another use.
Cut the potato skins into thin strips or small pieces, ensuring they are roughly the same size for even cooking.
In a bowl, toss the potato skins with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned potato skins in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the skins are golden and crispy.
Optional: Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese immediately after removing from the oven for extra flavor.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy as a snack or appetizer.
Chef's Tips
- Uniform Size: Cut the potato skins into similar sizes to ensure even cooking.
- Extra Crispy: For extra crispiness, bake at a lower temperature (375°F) for a longer time.
- Seasoning Variations: Experiment with different seasonings like chili powder, rosemary, or cayenne pepper.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven to restore crispiness.
- Serving Suggestion: Serve with sour cream, guacamole, or your favorite dip for added flavor.
