Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 2 teaspoons confectioners’ sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon fine salt
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 medium russet potatoes
- About 2 quarts vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
- Mix the paprika, sugar, salt, onion powder, smoked paprika, chili powder and garlic powder together in a small bowl.
- Slice the potatoes about 1/16 inch thick on a mandoline. Put the potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and agitate to separate the slices and release the starch. Drain the water and repeat with fresh cold water about 3 more times, until the water runs clear. Lay out a couple of layers of paper towels and spread the potatoes out in a slightly overlapping layer (stack with more layers of paper towels to save space if necessary) and let stand to dry, about 5 minutes.
- Fill a large, wide pot with 2 inches of oil and heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 300 degrees F. Line a large mixing bowl with paper towels for draining. Add about 1/4 of the potato slices to the hot oil and fry, mixing constantly with a spider or large slotted metal spoon, until golden brown all over, about 4 minutes. Transfer the chips to the prepared mixing bowl. Fry the remaining potatoes in 3 more batches, making sure to return the oil to 300 degrees F between batches. When all of the chips are in the bowl, remove the paper towels.
- Put the seasoning mix in a sieve and dust it over the chips, gently tossing them so that they coat evenly. Cool completely and eat immediately or keep in an airtight bag or container up to 1 day.

If it wasn’t for my guest seeing me fry and season these chips, they would have thought I bought them at the store… wait there are only 5 stars where is the others LoL!
My wife threatened to eat the entire bowl!
So good! My husband asked if you can find these in the grocery store. Um, no. haha
Love these 🙂
So good! Easy too!
These chips are so yummy and absolutely amazing! Thank you Valerie
I always have these ingredients on hand and make these chips often. They are so good and easy to make. My family loves them. So addictive.
I finally made these and couldn’t believe how easy it was and how good they came out. I have stopped buying chips, as they are just too salty. I have actually thrown several bags of potato and corn chips out recently because of this. These can be seasoned multiple ways, but you will be in control of how much is put on them.
I added 1tsp. Of McCormick barbecue seasoning, I prefer these verses any store brought chips.
Can you air fry these? On WW just wondering. Thx!
