Kale Chips Recipes

CRISPY KALE "CHIPS"

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Remove the ribs from the kale and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Lay on a baking sheet and toss with the olive oil and salt. Bake until crisp, turning the leaves halfway through, about 20 minutes. Serve as finger food.

KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Cut away inner ribs from each kale leaf and discard; tear the leaves into pieces of uniform size. (I made my pieces about the size of a small potato chip.) Wash torn kale pieces and spin dry in a salad spinner or dry with paper towels until they're very dry.
• Put the kale pieces into a large resealable bag (or use a bowl if you don't mind getting your hands oily). Add about half the olive oil; seal and squeeze the bag so the oil gets distributed evenly on the kale pieces. Add the remaining oil and squeeze the bag more, until all kale pieces are evenly coated with oil and slightly 'massaged.' Sprinkle the vinegar over the kale leaves, reseal the bag, and shake to spread the vinegar evenly over the leaves. Spread the leaves evenly onto a baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until mostly crisp, about 35 minutes. Season with salt and serve immediately.

BAKED KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a non insulated cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• With a knife or kitchen shears carefully remove the leaves from the thick stems and tear into bite size pieces. Wash and thoroughly dry kale with a salad spinner. Drizzle kale with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning salt.
• Bake until the edges brown but are not burnt, 10 to 15 minutes.
