Old Fashioned Duck-Fat-Baked Potato Chips
Author: 
 
Ingredients
  • 5 Tbs melted duck (or other) fat
  • 5-7 medium-sized russet potatoes
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp granulated garlic
  • 1 tsp parsley (fresh or dried)
  • ½ tsp granulated sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Slice potatoes thinly (I used the second smallest setting on my mandolin). I don't peel them. I always wait to slice the last potato until I see how many potatoes will fit on the pans, as it varies depending on their exact size.
  3. You'll need two larger sheet pans (I use half sheet pans).
  4. Drizzle 2 Tbs of fat on each of the pans and rub it all around, then place a single layer of potato slices on the pan. Drizzle ½ Tbs of fat on top of the potatoes in each pan and rub it all over the top of them.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes and take the potatoes out of the oven.
  6. Mix together the salt, onion powder, granulated garlic, and sugar then sprinkle it evenly on the potatoes.
  7. Return them to the oven and watch them for the next 5-10 minutes.
  8. Some will turn crisp and start to brown faster than others; remove the done ones from the pan and return the pan to the oven until they are all done.
