PARMESAN PEPPER CURLY KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275°F with racks in upper and lower thirds.
• Line rimmed sheet pans with parchment or nonstick foil.
• Cut out and discard stems and center ribs from kale. Aim for 32 cups of leaves (use a 1- or 2-quart glass measure and pack leaves without crushing them). Wash leaves and dry well.
• Transfer half of kale to a large bowl. Toss with half of oil, rubbing leaves to make sure they are well coated, then toss with half of parmesan, pepper, and salt. Once the first half is in the oven, repeat with the other half of the kale.
• Working in batches, spread leaves in a single layer on lined sheet pans and bake, switching positions of sheets halfway through, until crisp, about 25 minutes. Transfer crisps with a metal spatula to baking sheets or platters to cool. Reuse parchment or foil for successive batches.

BAKED PARMESAN KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper; spray paper with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, toss ingredients until kale is evenly coated. Place on cookie sheet in single layer.
• Bake 10 minutes, stirring once halfway through baking, until chips are crisp. Store in airtight container.

PARMESAN KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
• With a sharp knife, remove and discard the hard rib from the center of each leaf, leaving the leaves as intact as possible. Place them on the sheet pans, drizzle or brush them with olive oil, and toss to coat lightly. Sprinkle generously with salt and bake for 10 minutes, until crispy. Sprinkle lightly with Parmesan cheese and bake for another 5 minutes. Cool and serve.

PARMESAN KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Adjust one oven rack to the upper-middle position and the other oven rack to the lower-middle position.
• Remove and discard the ribs from the kale, then slice each leaf in half. In a large bowl, toss the kale with the oil and salt until evenly coated.
• Divide the kale among 2 baking sheets, making sure they are in a single layer and not overlapping. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the kale. Set the baking sheets on the oven racks and bake, switching the baking sheets from bottom to top and top to bottom midway through baking, until the kale shrinks in size, about 20 minutes (it may not be completely crispy at this point, but as it cools it will crisp up).
• Allow the kale chips to cool completely and crisp up before serving.

TUSCAN KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F. Toss kale with oil in large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Arrange leaves in single layer on 2 large baking sheets. Bake until crisp, about 30 minutes for flat leaves and up to 33 minutes for wrinkled leaves. Transfer leaves to rack to cool.

KALE CHIPS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray two baking trays with cooking spray. Remove the center rib and stems from each kale leaf and discard. Tear or cut the leaves into bite-size pieces, about 2 to 3 inches wide. Wash the kale and dry it very well.
• 2. Place the kale in a large bowl. Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with the garlic powder and salt, and massage the oil and seasonings into the kale with your hands to distribute evenly. Place the kale in a single layer on the baking sheets, and bake until crisp and the edges are slightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes.
