Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat the oven.

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Prepare the potatoes.

  1. Wash and thinly slice the potatoes using a mandoline or sharp knife. The thinner the slices, the crispier the chips will be.

Season the potatoes.

  1. In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil or melted butter until evenly coated.

Bake the Potatoes:

  1. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chips are golden and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

Make the seasoning:

  1. While the chips are baking, mix together the sour cream, onion powder, garlic powder, dried chives, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

Season the chips:

  1. Once the chips are done baking, remove them from the oven and immediately toss them in the sour cream and onion seasoning mixture. Make sure each chip is well coated.

Cool and Serve:

  1. Let the chips cool slightly before serving. They will continue to crisp up as they cool. Enjoy your homemade sour cream and onion chips as a tasty snack!
