Spicy Kale Chips

By The Wine Artist

Friday, April 12th, 2013

This is my go to snack when I have a salty/crunchy craving as this is so much healthier than reaching for a bag of regular chips. I have seen Kale chips sold in stores but by making it yourself, it’s less expensive and you can control the amount of salt.

I usually like my chips with a little kick so I add some cayenne or red pepper flakes, but feel free to add other spices or just use salt only.

Some tips:

Dry the leaves thoroughly as the leaves will steam, not crisp if there is moisture
Arrange leaves in a single layer on the baking sheet to get it crispy
Line baking sheet with parchment paper if you prefer easier cleaning
Add salt after baking, as salt can extract moisture from leaves and create steam
Buy organic Kale, whenever possible

Serves 4

Ingredients:

1 bunch Kale, washed and dried thoroughly
2 Tablespoons Coconut oil, melted (can use extra virgin olive oil)
Optional seasonings: cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, paprika, etc
Salt, to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Using your hands, remove leaves from stem and tear into bite size pieces.

Place leaves on a baking sheet, drizzle with oil and coat evenly with your fingers. If you like it spicy, add cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, paprika, etc.

Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 12-18 minutes. Start checking after 10 minutes as it tends to burn easily.
