Crispy sliced potatoes cooked to perfection in the air fryer. This simple yet delicious recipe features thinly sliced Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes seasoned with garlic, onion powder, paprika, and olive oil, then air fried to a golden, crunchy finish. Perfect as a snack or a flavorful side dish, these potatoes are easy to prepare with a soak step that ensures extra crispiness.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Potatoes:

  • 4 medium-sized potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes, then slice them thinly about 1/8 inch thick using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife to ensure even cooking and crisping.
  2. Soak the Potatoes: Place the potato slices in a bowl and cover with cold water. Soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps the slices crisp up better when cooked.
  3. Season and Coat: Drain and pat dry the potato slices thoroughly to remove moisture. In a large mixing bowl, toss the slices with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Preheat and Cook: Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for about 5 minutes. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if necessary. Air fry for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping and browning on all sides.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once golden brown and crispy, transfer the potato slices to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately as a delicious snack or side dish.

Notes

  • Soaking the potatoes is crucial to remove starch for maximum crispiness.
  • Pat the potato slices as dry as possible before seasoning to ensure they crisp well.
  • Cooking in batches prevents overcrowding, which helps them cook evenly and become crispy.
  • Adjust paprika quantity or omit it based on your preferred spice level.
  • Use olive oil or a neutral oil suitable for high-temperature cooking.
  • Best served immediately, as the crispiness diminishes if left to sit too long.
