Kale Chips

Recipe #110071 | 45 min | 15 min prep | add private note

Light and crunchy "chips" that are practically guilt free. Found this recipe on radicalhealth.com

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons salt (this makes them pretty salty- you may want to reduce the amount, then sprinkle the chips with salt w)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 bunches kale, rinsed with stems removed

Directions

  1. 1
    Cut kale into 2 to 3 inch pieces.
  2. 2
    Mix vinegar, oil, and salt in a large bowl then add kale and mix by hand.
  3. 3
    Try to get all the leaves covered.
  4. 4
    Place on baking sheets (I like to use parchment paper for easy clean up) and bake at 350 F until they are crispy.
  5. 5
    After about 20 minutes, if it looks like they are not sizzling a bit or getting a little crispy, turn up the heat to 400°F.
  6. 6
    Time for baking varies depending on the size of your chips and desired crispness.
  7. 7
    The outer edges cook quicker than the pieces from near the stem.

Ok, so this just didn't turn out for me at all. I did modify a bit following another recipe that I like a lot which might have contributed, so I'm not going to give a star rating. I think that the temperature was just too high though as they all burned.

    WOW! These are so good! What a wonderful crunch.... but not heavy & greasy like a chip! I also left out the apple cider vinegar! But will try it next time. We added garlic & pepper! KIDS & Hubby both loved them!

    Really interesting almost melt-in-your-mouth texture to these with an intense dark "green" flavor. I found that I would have liked a little more vinegar flavor, but I think had I chopped it up a little smaller that would have helped. Be especially careful with the bits near the stems - when cooked thouroughly the texture will be like the airiest potato chips ever, but when undercooked, rather chewy. I used no where near the amount of salt called for, so be sure to use your discretion for that. A great healthy snack and lovely unusual way to use up those super-nutritious greens.

    I had such high hopes for this, and I am sorry to say it fell a bit flat for us. It was very crispy, yes, salty, yes, good combination of ingredients, but still kinda bitter, it reminded me of ashes in the fireplace after you burn paper..you know the kind that are so lightweight they fly around the room? Not to mention, the house took on a very bitter, kale smell. Not a winner for us.
