3.8 from 3 reviews

Crispy, flavorful air fryer potato chips made with thinly sliced russet potatoes, lightly seasoned with garlic salt, oregano, and blackened seasoning. A healthier alternative to traditional fried chips, these are perfect for snacking and easy to prepare in your air fryer.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 2 medium russet potatoes (washed)

Seasonings and Oil

  • Grapeseed oil (in a spray bottle)
  • ½ tbsp garlic salt
  • ½ tbsp oregano
  • ½ tbsp blackened seasoning
  • Fresh chopped parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Slice Potatoes: Using a food processor with a very thin slicing disc, slice the potatoes evenly to a thickness of about 1/16 or 1/8 inch. Alternatively, use a mandoline or a potato peeler to achieve uniform slices.
  2. Rinse and Soak: Place the potato slices in a large bowl of very cold water. Rinse thoroughly to remove excess potato starch. Drain and refill the bowl with fresh cold water, allowing the slices to soak for 10 minutes.
  3. Dry Potato Slices: Drain the soaked potato slices and lay them out on a large towel. Pat them completely dry to remove all moisture for better crispiness.
  4. Preheat Air Fryer: While soaking the slices, preheat your air fryer to 360°F if your model requires preheating.
  5. Prepare for Cooking: Lay the potato slices in a single layer on a large pastry mat, aluminum foil sheet, or sheet pan. Lightly spray the slices with grapeseed oil to ensure even crisping.
  6. Season Potatoes: Mix together garlic salt, oregano, and blackened seasoning in a small bowl. Lightly sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over the oiled potato slices. Blot off any excess moisture that may appear from the salted potatoes to avoid sogginess during cooking.
  7. Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the seasoned potato slices in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. To prevent curling and ensure even cooking, keep slices separated. Depending on your air fryer size, you may need to cook in 3 to 4 batches.
  8. Cook Chips: Air fry the potato slices at 360°F for 7 to 10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through the cooking time for even browning. Use the first batch to check doneness and adjust cook time or seasoning if needed.
  9. Repeat Cooking: Continue cooking the remaining slices in batches until all potato chips are done.
  10. Garnish and Serve: Optionally garnish the crispy chips with fresh chopped parsley before serving for added color and flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure potato slices are very thin and evenly cut for uniform cooking.
  • Saturate the slices lightly with grapeseed oil to avoid sogginess and promote crispiness.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
  • Blot excess moisture after seasoning to keep chips crisp.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste or try different spice blends for variety.
  • Use fresh parsley garnish for an appealing finish but it’s optional.
