Kale Chips |
|
–
1 bunch kale – stalks removed if desired – thinly sliced –
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil |
– 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar –
1 pinch sea salt – to
taste |
(1) Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees
C). (2) 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. (3) 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. (4) Roast in
the preheated oven until mostly crisp, about 10 or 15 minutes or until crisp.
Season with salt and serve immediately.
NOTE: Watch as these cook
because they can burn rather easily. |
